NameResolutionFailure in Xamarin HttpClient (VS2015 C#)

Avrajit Bhattacharya

Hi All,

While consuming a REST get API by HttpClient from Xamarin (VS 2015 community edition C#) we're getting "NameResolutionFailure" exception as we've configured user permission for using INTERNET in manifest file.

Furthermore, the first REST get API call was successful but the above said exception happened while consuming different REST get API and in that case the address returning data fine when we test the API through Advance Rest Client (Chrome). The API address consist of IP instead of DNS.

Please suggest to overcome this issue.

Thanks,

My problem is not writing codes but to consume multiple httpclient call within one class, as I've described earlier for the first call it's perfectly okay but creating problem for next httpclient call onwards. Please help on this if possible.
