I missed to tell you, use this: using System.Net.Http; //so it'll be like System.Net.Http.HttpRequestMessage.Request

Error in Request.Content Error2'System.Web.HttpRequest' does not contain a definition for 'Content' and no extension method 'Content' accepting a first argument of type 'System.Web.HttpRequest' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Following convention, we generally upload at App_Data folder but you can choose any folder of your own choice to upload you can now enjoy power of async so your application doesn't wait for that process to complete, use below snippet as reference protected Task DoUpload() { try { return Request.Content.ReadAsMultipartAsync(this) } catch (System.Exception e) { throw e; } }
