I am trying to call an asynchronous method from a synchronous method.

For instance: Let methodAsync be an asynchronous method.

static void methodSync()
{
    object1.methodAsync().Wait();
    object1.methodAsync().Result;
    object1.methodAsync().GetAwaiter().GetResult();
}

Suggestion by sonar:

Replace this use of Task.Wait with await.

Similarly, for the Task.Result and GetAwaiter().GetResult() . https://rules.sonarsource.com/csharp/RSPEC-4462

what can we do to call asynchronous method from a synchronous method?

It already tells you what to do. What question are you asking? – Evan Trimboli May 26 '20 at 06:48
Replacing Task.Wait with await cannot be done as the methodSync()- the calling function, is a synchronous method trying to call an asnchronous method - methodAsync(). How to call asynchronous method from synchronous method? – Ananya Agarwal May 26 '20 at 07:02

Then you ignore the warning and move on. – Evan Trimboli May 26 '20 at 07:12
