You do know that meaning cloud has a support page, right?
Support | MeaningCloud[^]
They are experts on this so why not try to post your question there?

The also have a test console where you can try out your request and get the parameters correct.

Try the console. It might be helpful.
The problem is that in order to test your code I need to create an account, and I have no use for that at the moment.

Ok, i use the console and its ok, the problem is with the code in asp.net, i keep looking.
