android - stack exchange api post method -

i trying upvote question using stackexchange api in android. using url https://api.stackexchange.com/2.2/questions/{questionid}/upvote

but in log showing org.apache.http.message.basichttpresponse@33b2c539

api link upvote question https://api.stackexchange.com/docs/upvote-question

when trying api link working, not code.

find below code below:

string url= "https://api.stackexchange.com/2.2/questions/"+questionid+"/upvote";

                httpclient httpclient = new defaulthttpclient();                 httppost httppost = new httppost(url.tostring());                   list<namevaluepair> namevaluepair = new arraylist<namevaluepair>(2);                  namevaluepair.add(new basicnamevaluepair("key", key));                 namevaluepair.add(new basicnamevaluepair("access_token", accesstoken));                  try {                         httppost.setentity(new urlencodedformentity(namevaluepair));                 } catch (unsupportedencodingexception e) {                         e.printstacktrace();                 }                 // making request                  try {                        response = httpclient.execute(httppost);                         log.d("http post response:", response.tostring());                 } catch (clientprotocolexception e) {                         e.printstacktrace();                 } catch (ioexception e) {                         e.printstacktrace();                 } 

got solutions. should pass 5 parameters upvote question.

list<namevaluepair> namevaluepair = new arraylist<namevaluepair>(5); namevaluepair.add(new basicnamevaluepair("key", key)); namevaluepair.add(new basicnamevaluepair("access_token", accesstoken)); namevaluepair.add(new basicnamevaluepair("filter", "default")); namevaluepair.add(new basicnamevaluepair("site", "stackoverflow")); namevaluepair.add(new basicnamevaluepair("preview", "false")); 

also, http response in json format (expected), in gzip type. need decode response sending data gzipinputstream , decode in in utf-8 read it. (mentioned in api docs)

            gzipinputstream gin = new gzipinputstream(entity.getcontent());             inputstreamreader ss = new inputstreamreader(gin, "utf-8");             bufferedreader br = new bufferedreader(ss);             string line = "", data="";             while((line=br.readline())!=null){                 data+=line;             }
