Re: Uploading images to Imgur using c#

[@jasdev]

Hey Erel!

You're going to need to set an Authorization header with your Client-ID and make a POST request to `https://api.imgur.com/3/image` with the following form data:

• `image` with value of the URL you want to upload
• `type` with value `url`

Your Authorization HTTP header should be set like so: `Authorization: Client-ID YOUR_CLIENT_ID`

Below are links to the relevant docs, hope this helps!

Hey Erel!

Without the error I can't really tell what's up, but I'm guessing you're running into the rate-limits I mentioned in my previous post.

Please be cognizant in your code to avoid hitting these rate-limits too often.

Best,

Looks like C# does have a native JSON library. Give that a try!

All API responses are wrapped in JSON, so there is no way to just get the link string back.

Hope this helps!
