On one side i have a Asp.Net Core WebApi 1.1 project hosted on a web server providing REST endpoints. On the other side i have a Windows Service project using .net framework 2.0.
.net 2.0 is a requirement and i can't update to a later version.

What is the best way to communicate between these two?

I never used .net2.0 so I'm not quite sure what my options are. Communicating with REST endpoints on the WebApi would be preferred, but i can't find a good way to achieve this as libraries like WCF/Json/.. are not available on 2.0.

Edit: The client (Windows Service) should be able to register itself to the web service (PUT), get a status and download a file from it (GET).

  • What kind of communication you need? One way from service to web api (that is - just make web requests to the endpoint)? Commented Jun 27, 2017 at 8:03
  • I should be able to send requests (GET/POST/PUT) to the web api. One way from service to web api should be enough. Commented Jun 27, 2017 at 8:05
