XSRF-TOKEN

How is it possible to make http request for login in C#?
When I try to make the http request with the POST protocol I cannot obtain the XSRF-TOKEN.
Can anyone help me?
public class NetworkService : INetworkService
{
private readonly HttpClient _webClient;
private readonly CookieContainer _cookieManager;
private readonly HttpClientHandler _webHandler;
public NetworkService(IHttpClientFactory clientFactory)
{
_cookieManager = new CookieContainer();
_webHandler = new HttpClientHandler()
{
SslProtocols = SslProtocols.Tls12 | SslProtocols.Tls13,
MaxAutomaticRedirections = 10,
UseCookies = true,
CookieContainer = _cookieManager,
AllowAutoRedirect = true,
CheckCertificateRevocationList = true
};
_webClient = clientFactory.CreateClient("NetworkServiceClient");
_webClient.BaseAddress = new Uri("[URL]https://example.com/api[/URL]");
_webClient.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Clear();
_webClient.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));
}
public async Task<string> CallApi1(string userId, string accessCode)
{
var endpoint = new Uri(_webClient.BaseAddress, "/api1/login");
var loginInfo = new { userName = username, userPassword = password };
var contentBody = new StringContent(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(loginInfo), Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");
HttpResponseMessage result = await _webClient.PostAsync(endpoint, contentBody);
if (!result.IsSuccessStatusCode)
{
Console.WriteLine($"API1 call failed with status code: {result.StatusCode}");
return null;
}
var token = ExtractCookie("XSRF-TOKEN");
return token;
}
}
The code is functioning properly and returns a 200 response, however, I’m not receiving the XSRF Cookie. When I perform the HTTP request in Postman, I do receive the XSRF Cookie. But in C#, it’s not being received.
