Hello,

I’m trying to upload images to an Ushahidi instance (trashswag.com) but it’s not going through. We’re working on the Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 platforms. Here’s some details:

This is the POST url:

https://trashswag.com/api?task=report?incident_title=test&incident_description=test&incident_category=1&location_name=165 Upper Madison Ave, North York, ON M2N, Canada&latitude=43.764468&longitude=-79.412508&incident_date=06-25-2013&incident_hour=5&incident_minute=30&incident_ampm=pm&task=report

This is the response message:

{StatusCode: 200, ReasonPhrase: 'OK', Version: 1.1, Content: System.Net.Http.StreamContent, Headers:

}}

And then this is the content of that message:

Id = 1, Status = RanToCompletion, Method = "{null}", Result = "{\"code\":\"001\",\"message\":\"Missing Parameter - task.\"}"

I guess my question becomes this: Why are we being told task is missing when it's not?
