Google Safe Browsing V4 - Unable to send request

I have been working on google safe browsing API - I am sure I am doing everything correct but I get the error when I try to connect to the API

"Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

I have correct nuGet package installed

My code is the following 

try
{
    //cient_info
    Google.Apis.Safebrowsing.v4.Data.ClientInfo client = new Google.Apis.Safebrowsing.v4.Data.ClientInfo();
    client.ClientId = "testapp";
    client.ClientVersion = "1";

    //thread_info
    Google.Apis.Safebrowsing.v4.Data.ThreatInfo threadInfo = new Google.Apis.Safebrowsing.v4.Data.ThreatInfo();
    threadInfo.ThreatTypes.Add("MALWARE");
    threadInfo.ThreatTypes.Add("SOCIAL_ENGINEERING");
    threadInfo.PlatformTypes.Add("WINDOWS");
    threadInfo.ThreatEntryTypes.Add("URL");

    //url to check
    Google.Apis.Safebrowsing.v4.Data.ThreatEntry ITEM = new Google.Apis.Safebrowsing.v4.Data.ThreatEntry();
    ITEM.Url = "http://www.google.com.au/";
    threadInfo.ThreatEntries.Add(ITEM);

    //API Call
    var googleClient = new WebClient();
    var response = googleClient.DownloadString("https://safebrowsing.googleapis.com/v4/" + client + threadInfo + "&key=myapikey");
    var releases = JObject.Parse(response);
    return releases.ToString();
}
catch (Exception X)
{
    var Error = X.Message;
    return Error.ToString();
}

I think i am messing up at var response = googleClient.DownloadString but I am not sure what is the correct call method for this.

Does anyone have any idea?

Cheers

I used ThreatMatches.Find() and it worked.

ThreatMatchesResource.FindRequest request = service.ThreatMatches.Find(
new FindThreatMatchesRequest{Client = client, ThreatInfo = threatInfo});

FindThreatMatchesResponse execute = await request.ExecuteAsync();

var releases = execute.ToString();

You need to put your api key in

googleClient.DownloadString("https://safebrowsing.googleapis.com/v4/" + client + threadInfo + "&key=myapikey");
