How to call my web API and display data in GridView?

Here is my API localhost:51549/API/student/

I want it to be displayed in my form when the button is clicked as a data grid. I have tried:

private  void button1_Click_1(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
            
    client.BaseAddress = new Uri("http://localhost:51549/");
    HttpResponseMessage response = client.GetAsync("api/student").Result;
          
    dataGridView1.DataSource = response; 
}

Note: my student controller basically calls a DLL to do the operations.

You have to write the content of the response to the DataSource:

dataGridView1.DataSource = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
