Fetching NewsStory via API Not Working (C#/.NET Framework)

// Retrieve the most recent headline about Apple
var headline = Headlines.Definition().Query("L:EN and Apple")
                                        .Count(1)
                                        .GetData();

if (headline.IsSuccess)
{
    Console.WriteLine("StoryID: "+ headline.Data.Headlines[0].StoryId);
    // Retrieve the story based on the story ID
    var story = Story.Definition(headline.Data.Headlines[0].StoryId).GetData();

    Console.WriteLine($"\nHeadline: {headline.Data.Headlines[0].HeadlineTitle}");

    if (story.IsSuccess)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"\nStory (Plain text): {story.Data.NewsStory}");
        Console.Write("\n<Enter> to retrieve Html formatted version..."); Console.ReadLine();
        Console.WriteLine($"\nStory (HTML): {story.Data.HtmlNewsStory}");

I'm trying to fetch the News Story's body using the .NET library in C#. I'm running the sample project (2.3.03-News-Story). story.Data.NewsStory as well as story.Data.HtmlNewsStory are both returning as null. I have not modified the sample project code, except for printing out the StoryID, which is "urn:newsml:newsroom:20230709:nNRAp69095:0"

Any idea on why both "story.Data.NewsStory" and "story.Data.HtmlNewsStory" are returning as null? FYI, the news item is succesfully being found and story.IsSuccess is true.

I am using 1.0.0-beta5 and it can return that news story properly.

However, after downgrading to 1.0.0-beta4, I got null for this news story.

 var story = Story.Definition("urn:newsml:newsroom:20230710:nNRAp6cmnn:0").GetData();

                            Console.WriteLine($"\nHeadline: {headline.Data.Headlines[0].HeadlineTitle}");

                            if (story.IsSuccess)
                            {
                                Console.WriteLine($"\nStory (Plain text): {story.Data.NewsStory}");
if (story.Data.NewsStory == null)
                                {
                                    Console.Write("\nBlank Story");
                                    Console.ReadLine();

                                }

                            }

Nick is correct. Please upgrade to 1.0.0-beta5.
