I am getting the following error when I get APIKeyInfo. Can someone tell me what this error means? I assume it means the API info is wrong however it works with GET in Firefox.

I'm using C# and UploadStringAsync to make the query.

Also, does anyone know a way to sniff the packets exchanged with the API server? Wireshark doesn't work since the exchange is HTTPS.

I found Fiddler and was able to extract the raw HTTPS packet sent to the API server. This article helped me get Fiddler setup to capture HTTPS from the Windows Phone emulator. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/fiddler/archive/2010/10/15/fiddler-and-the-windows-phone-emulator.aspx

Here is the raw packet (with the API key tweaked of course)

I don't see anything odd there. Do you?

I'm using POST because the EveDev wiki recommended it. I notice that EveMon uses GET for it's queries. Is POST unreliable?

I figured it out. I was missing this line.

client.Headers[HttpRequestHeader.ContentType] = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";

Just FYI EVEMon is using POST.

So does Yapeal and it works just as well or better than GET would.

Finds camping stations from the inside much easier. Designer of Yapeal for the Eve API. Check out the Yapeal PHP API Library thread.
