🔥 How to use CancellationToken in ASP.NET Core WebApi 

Great explanation, thank you!

I am very excited man! Already Subscribed. :)

Really good work and valueable share 👍👍

Very Informative, Thanks

Wow, Amazing content Saeed. I know what the main problem in my organization project. I have poorly managed all resources. I am going to fix them soon.

Hey Saeed, This video was so helpful. Keep going. Please create a video on how to make an asynchronous HttpRequest.

Just Keep Going!

Keep going!

great Saeed. there is one missing part: when to use CancellationToken.None. sometimes we have multiple operations, in which all of them accept cancellationToken; but after specific operation we should not cancel the process. for example: var transfer = service1.GetTransfer(cancellationToken); service2.DoTransfer(transfer, someArgs, cancellationToken); service3.TransferApplied(transer, CancellationToken.None); if we pass the cancellationToken to the third service, if the request is cancelled, we would have an inconsistent state. sometimes we should pass CancellationToken.None, if we want that our code continues running, even if the request is cancelled by the user , timeout, etc.

Muchas gracias por la aportación, me has dado mejor visión del uso adecuado del CancellationToken, será interesante ponerlo en práctica. Por otro lado, en el video muestras el ejemplo de la capa de repositorio por EF, sin embargo, si el escenario fuera que para esta capa la comunicación es por StoreProcedures donde para "delete, insert o update " manejan sus propias transacciones, ¿sería recomendable el uso del CancellationToken?

Saeed, this is awesome. Thank you. Is there anyway to send a cancellation via another endpoint to cancel? I made a live log monitor which runs a while loop looking for !token.IsCancellationRequested, but when it’s running, I’d like to send like a stop parameter to it from another action result. It’s cool that we have Swagger, Postman, etc but in a real world app, obviously the user won’t be interfacing with either of those. Thanks.

Please zoom your IDE, it is difficult to watch with phone, and please provide code, direct link of project for every tutorial.

should we be using the cancellation token on POST and UPDATE requests?

Will it work only on webServer (Kestrel) or it will also work on Out-of-process hosting (IIS) or In-process hosting (IIS)?
