I have a paid subscription to Seeking Alpha and have a cookkie which enables me to get full data from https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/AAPL/financials-data?period_type=quarterly&statement_type=income-statement&order_type=latest_left&is_pro=True
I'd like to collect JSON response using C#
Below is my horrible code
string cookie = "my super secret cookie string";
var request = new RestRequest(Method.GET);
request.AddHeader("content-type", "application/json");
request.AddHeader("Accept", "*/*");
request.AddHeader("User-Agent","Mozilla/5.0");
request.AddHeader("X-Requested-With", "XMLHttpRequest");
string url = "https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/AAPL/financials-data?period_type=quarterly&statement_type=income-statement&order_type=latest_left&is_pro=True";
request.AddParameter("cookie", cookie, ParameterType.Cookie);
var client = new RestClient(url);
var queryResult = client.Execute(request);
Console.WriteLine(queryResult.Content);
How can I get it to return JSON to me? I am getting something but not the JSON I want
Try updating your Access
header to application/json
.
request.AddHeader("Accept", "application/json");
Accept
indicates what kind of response from the server the client can accept.
You can get more info for Accept
from Header parameters: “Accept” and “Content-type” in a REST context
After poking around for a bit I figured it out. For the benefit of all:
private bool FinancialStatement(string symbol, string statement, string period)
{
var target = $"{BASE_URL}{symbol}/financials-data?period_type={period}&statement_type={statement}&order_type=latest_left&is_pro=True";
var client = new RestClient(target);
client.Timeout = -1;
var request = new RestRequest(Method.GET);
request.AddHeader("Cookie", MACHINE_COOKIE);
IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);
dynamic responseObj;
try
{
responseObj = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(response.Content);
}
catch (Exception)
{
return false;
}
return response.IsSuccessful;
}
