Hello,

I need help working with the API of bitshare
If you take a look here : http://bitshare.com/openAPI.html[^] you will see the commands used with it

I'm very new to Programing and I'm pretty sure that this is ridiculous for some of you
but I couldnt find any tutorials or help on how to work with this,

I dont have any clue on how to begin with this,
I know of API's which you import in your Project but not like this,

can anyone show me a little example on how to use this API with c#??

Why don't you ask the question from Bitshare?

The website you linked to pretty much answers your question:
The API is based on simple POST-Actions. See the single actions for paramters, return results and documentation. Please find the general message structure below.

So everything is done with a HTML page post.

in other words you cant directly use that API in C# because its PHP based. So either you will need to make a html site and link that site to a webbrowser control in a form, or maybe you can make a ASP.NET application that maybe can work around it. Remember all .net libraries is usually .dll format. good luck anyways :)
