I am struggling to find out why my query throws an exception when I do a specific query. Is there a way to see the raw response from Salesforce or .NET? Query string in itemQueryString is running correctly using workbench so I have ruled out query string problem.

Here is my code:

try{
    var results = forceClient.QueryAsync<JObject>(itemQueryString).Result;
    //do something...
} catch (Exception e) {
    System.Diagnostics.Trace.TraceError("Error while querying items " + e.ToString());
}

Here is the exception 

"System.AggregateException: One or more errors occurred. ---> 
Newtonsoft.Json.JsonReaderException: Unexpected character encountered while 
parsing value: <. Path '', line 0, position 0.\r\n   at

Looks like it's returning unexpected result so query result cannot be parsed but I don't know how to get the raw response so I can see what is wrong with the query.

I tried to use system.net trace according to this blog; however, my trace is encrypted I cannot see the response. https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/waws/2017/03/14/how-to-get-a-system-net-trace-of-your-c-web-job/

Lets go down the rabbit hole!

  1. ForceClient.QueryAsync
  2. JsonHttpClient.HttpGetAsync

  3. BaseHttpClient.HttpGetAsync

    protected async Task<string> HttpGetAsync(Uri uri)
{
    var responseMessage = await HttpClient.GetAsync(uri).ConfigureAwait(false);
    // ...
}

If you were using the toolkit source directly rather than via nuget you could just grab the responseMessage.Content.ReadAsStringAsync() result as needed.

Otherwise your options are to:

  1. Log the HttpClient requests/responses, or
  2. Use a OS level tool to intercept the network traffic.

  • Thanks so much for the pointer. I used HttpClient instead of Forceclient to send the exact request. I was able to get HttpResponseMessage that contains the raw response. Finally I can see the error!
