Solution 1

Use HttpWebRequest class, it allows you to add custom headers to http request and choose http method.

I have Solved it..

string sBaseUrl = txtBaseUrl.Text;
if (sBaseUrl != "")
{
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(sBaseUrl);
request.Method = "GET";
request.UnsafeAuthenticatedConnectionSharing = true;
request.Headers["Authorization"] = "Bearer 624a3eef46f79772958693fa87118b29";
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("mrinalkumarjha", "*******");

HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream());
dvResult.InnerHtml = reader.ReadToEnd();
}
else
{
dvResult.InnerHtml = "Please Enter base URL";
}
