I want to make a file which reads String array but initially I am having only byte array so first I want to convert it into string array, so how can I do so.

1Use StreamReader to read strings from a file. File.ReadAllLines() is the quick way.Hans Passant– Hans Passant2010-04-17 16:54:02 +00:00Commented Apr 17, 2010 at 16:54

Try this:
Byte[] bytes = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(yourString);
You may need to change this up depending on the character encoding of your string - please see System.Text.Encoding (specifically its properties) for other encodings that are supported by this type.
If you need to go the other way (and convert a Byte[] to a String) then do this (The advice on character encoding still applies here as well):
String yourString = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(yourByteArray);
It sounds like your the API you are using expects a String[] and a call to GetString will provide you with just a single instance of String, not an array. Perhaps something like this will work for your API call:
String yourString = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(yourByteArray);
someType.ApiCall(new[] { yourString });
