Read response after uploading attachment using Web API

I am trying to read response after uploading an attachment using web API c#. Getting below error:

no mediaTypeFormatter is available to read an object of type 'String' from content with media type 'multipart/form-data.

Here is my part of code:

string filepath = "C:/Users/O42895/Desktop/DownloadAttachmen20189t.jpg"; string filename = "DownloadAttachmen20189t.jpg";

          MultipartFormDataContent content = new MultipartFormDataContent();
          ByteArrayContent fileContent = new ByteArrayContent(System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(filepath));
          fileContent.Headers.ContentDisposition = new ContentDispositionHeaderValue("attachment") { FileName = filename };
          content.Add(fileContent);

          client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("multipart/form-data"));

          response = await client.PostAsync("https:--.com/flex/upload/document/genericattachment", content);

var resBody = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result; Console.WriteLine(resBody);

I am getting the response but unable to print or read. Please let me know if any one knows

Seems you need to add the following line in your http header request on the client side (where you are sending the rest request to your web-api).

Hope this helps.

Content-Type: application/json
