Hi All,

[HttpPost]
[Route("/B2B/Core_RegistrationAsync")]
[AllowAnonymous]
public async Task<object> Core_RegistrationAsync([FromBody]JObject _jo)
{


try
{

string _company_name = (string)_jo["company_name"];
string _company_email = (string)_jo["company_email"];
string _core_client_id = (string)_jo["core_client_id"];


using (var client = new HttpClient())
{
var url = new Uri(_url);
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Clear();
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("api_key", Models.AppSettings.Application.PTDigital.B2B_API_KEY);
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("api_secret", Models.AppSettings.Application.PTDigital.B2B_API_SECRET);

var obj = new
{
client_id = _core_client_id,
company_name = _company_name,
company_email = _company_email
};

var json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(obj);
var content = new StringContent(json, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");
var response = await client.PostAsync(_url, content);

HttpStatusCode _statusCode = response.StatusCode;
if (_statusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK)
{
response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
string _res = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)

After 750 posts, we shouldn't need to tell you to format your code snippets.

        [HttpPost]
        [Route("/B2B/Core_RegistrationAsync")]
        [AllowAnonymous]
        public async Task<object> Core_RegistrationAsync([FromBody]JObject _jo)
        {
           

            try
            {
               
                string _company_name = (string)_jo["company_name"];
                string _company_email = (string)_jo["company_email"];
                string _core_client_id = (string)_jo["core_client_id"];


                using (var client = new HttpClient())
                {
                    var url = new Uri(_url);
                    client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Clear();
                    client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));
                    client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("api_key", Models.AppSettings.Application.PTDigital.B2B_API_KEY);
                    client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("api_secret", Models.AppSettings.Application.PTDigital.B2B_API_SECRET);

                    var obj = new
                    {
                        client_id = _core_client_id,
                        company_name = _company_name,
                        company_email = _company_email
                    };

                    var json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(obj);
                    var content = new StringContent(json, Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");
                    var response =  await client.PostAsync(_url, content);
                    
                    HttpStatusCode _statusCode = response.StatusCode;
                    if (_statusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK)
                    {
                        response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
                        string _res = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
                        if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
                        {
                            _ret = true;
                        }
                    }
                }

We also should not need to tell you that "it doesn't work" is never an adequate description of a problem. What happens and where does it happen? Are you able to call the same API from another application in the same way? Are you able to call a different API in the same way? Etc, etc. Provide a FULL and CLEAR explanation.
