  var luisRequestURL =   "https://api.projectoxford.ai/luis/v1/application?id=  fbec04e7-8bda-4160-a059-a8f8b995184b&subscription-  key=ENTER_KEY_HERE"; 

Next, append the user message, which we get from the user to the luisRequestUrl and do a Get request:

   httpClient = new HttpClient();    HttpResponseMessage response = await     httpClient.GetAsync(luisRequestURL + "&q=" + messagetext);    string luisResponseString = await  response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync(); ...
