asp.net mvc - How to make web API Post method call -

i have solution 2 project , 1 webapi service , mvc project . calling service controller. service has get,post,put methods. in view using submit button , calles post controller method in turn call service . here issue facing is calling method. want fire post method in service

controller post method

            [httppost]             public actionresult create(test test)             {                 if (modelstate.isvalid)                 {                      test objtest  = myservice.create(test);                      if (objtest  == null)                     {                         return httpnotfound();                     }                       return redirecttoaction("index");                 }              } 

here calls service

    **public test create(test test)     {         string uri = baseuri + "test/";         using (httpclient httpclient = new httpclient())         {             task<httpresponsemessage> response = httpclient.postasjsonasync(uri, new stringcontent(jsonconvert.serializeobject(test)));             return jsonconvert.deserializeobjectasync<test>(response.result.content.readasstringasync().result).result;          }     }** 

this post

    **// post api/test     public httpresponsemessage posttest(test test             {                 if (modelstate.isvalid)                 {                     db.test.add(test);                     db.savechanges();                      httpresponsemessage response = request.createresponse(httpstatuscode.created, test);                     response.headers.location = new uri(url.link("defaultapi", new { id = test.testid }));                     return response;                 }                 else                 {                     return request.createresponse(httpstatuscode.badrequest);                 }             }   **************** **// api/test         public ienumerable<test> gettest()         {             var tests= db.tests;              return tests.asenumerable();         }** 

it calls above method . new web api service. can 1 guide me proper way , wrong. not using ajax call post method.

this how post data.it's similar request in case since want send post aplicable. notice simple add post data (when compared httpwebrequest)

httpclient.postasync(uri, new stringcontent(data));
