Hands-on .NET Minimal API for Web Developers - Step 9: Update GET Operation to Use Async

The lecture explains how to enhance the maget method to support asynchronous operations. It involves adding the async keyword to the method's delegate and using the await keyword at appropriate statements. The lecture also highlights the importance of using asynchronous operation methods like toListAsync. Finally, it discusses building and testing the application using ostman.

What is the first step to make a method asynchronous in the context of the 'maget' method?

• Implement a new delegate

• Add the 'async' keyword

• Use 'ToListAsync' method

• Add the 'await' keyword

Why do we need to use 'ToListAsync' instead of 'ToList'?

• To support asynchronous operations

• To reduce memory usage

• To handle synchronous operations

• To improve code readability

What should be done after adding the 'async' keyword to a method?

• Add a new delegate

• Remove all synchronous operations

• Change the method name

• Add 'await' keyword at appropriate statements

What is the focus of the final section of the lecture?

• Implementing complex operations

• Understanding the basics of minimal APIs

• Debugging asynchronous methods

• Optimizing database queries

What is the expected result when executing the application in Postman after building it?

• A 200 OK with data

• A 404 error

• A 500 error

• A 200 OK with a blank body
