Topic: REST HTTP Response code

Richard Kavanagh (Jan 10 2018 at 23:14):

I'm using the .NET API to undertake a simple "GET" request via

        try
        {
               Organization xx = client.Read<Organization>(url);
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
               throw;
        }

In situations where the resource does not exist (i.e. a 404) an exception is thrown - in this case how do I get the HTTP response code?

The exception you are catching is actually a FhirOperationException, so you could split your try/catch like so:

try
{
}
catch(FhirOperationException foe)
{
        // inspect status
        var httpStatus = foe.Status;

         // get even more details
        var operationOutcome = foe.Outcome;

}
catch(Exception e)
{
   // something *really* bad happened
}
