Uri.DnsSafeHost Property is the instance property of Uri class which used to get a un-escaped hostname that is safe to use in DNS resolution. This property returns a string value. This property may generate System.InvalidOperationException exception.

Syntax:

    public string DnsSafeHost { get; }

Return value:

The return type of this property is string, it returns the host part of the URI in a format suitable for DNS resolution; or the original host string, if it is already suitable for resolution.

Example to demonstrate example of Uri.DnsSafeHost Property

using System;

class UriExample
{
    //Entry point of Program
    static public void Main()
    {
        Uri domainUri;
        
        domainUri = new Uri("https://www.includehelp.com:8082");
        
        Console.WriteLine("Hostname: "+ domainUri.DnsSafeHost);
    }
