How to create a method that returns the API response

Question

I'm using restsharp as HTTP client, and i don't know how to make possible that API response to return as specific model, or it can be returned as a string or something like that, I know that i'm using async/await, but how can do it correctly for my requirement

  //my api model
     class ApiModel
    {
        public string Content { get; set; }
    }


      // api call
       public static async Task ApiCall()
        {
            
            var client = new RestClient("https://google.com/");
            var request = new RestRequest("api/get_something", Method.Get);
            var response = await client.GetAsync(request);
            // i want to return like this 
            var customRes = new ApiModel();
            customRes.Content = response.Content;
            return customRes;

        }

Answer 1

you have to deserialize response

public static async Task<ActionResult<ApiModel>> ApiCall()
{
 .... your code
  var response = await client.GetAsync(request);
if (response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
    {
        var json =  response.Content;
        var result = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<ApiModel>(json);
        return  Ok(result)

         //or you have to post API model, I can only guess
       
        return Ok( new ApiModel { Content= ... I dont know what});

    }    
          
   return BadRequest();
}

Answer 2

  public static async Task<ApiModel> ApiCall(){

var client = new RestClient("https://google.com/");
var request = new RestRequest("api/get_something", Method.Get);
var result = client.Execute<ApiModel>(request).Data;
return result ;
}
