I've written below C# code to login to JIRA Rest API:

var url = new Uri("http://localhost:8090/rest/auth/latest/session?os_username=tempusername&os_password=temppwd");
var request = WebRequest.Create(url) as HttpWebRequest;
if (null == request)
{
 return "";
}
request.Method = "POST";
request.ContentType = "application/json";
request.ContentLength = 200;
request.KeepAlive = false;
using (var response = request.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse)
{
}

When I execute this, application just goes on running without returning any response. Please suggest if this is the right way of calling JIRA Login using REST API

For posting multipart content in Rest I use Tiny.RestClient.

var client = new TinyRestClient(new HttpClient(), "http://localhost:8090");

var strResult = await client.PostRequest("rest/auth/latest/session).
WithBasicAuthentication("username", "password")
ExecuteAsStringAsync();

    using (WebClient wc = new WebClient())
    {
        wc.Headers.Add("Authorization", "Basic " + GetEncodedCredentials());

        string tasks = wc.DownloadString("yourjiraurl/search?jql=task=bug");
        var taskdetails = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<TaskDetails>(tasks);
    }
}

static string GetEncodedCredentials()
{
    string mergedCredentials = string.Format("{0}:{1}", "UserName", "Password");
    byte[] byteCredentials = UTF8Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(mergedCredentials);
    return Convert.ToBase64String(byteCredentials);
