Graph API getAsync() in C#

If I use graph in a console application I get the information that I request.  Such as  

test = await graphClient.Users.GetAsync();

If I try this in a WebMethod in the code behind of a page or in an .asmx, it never returns with the data.  I know this has been mentioned before in many forums, but I did not have issues in V1.0 of the SDK.  When I try to use V5+ I can't seem to get the information back.  Any ideas on overcoming the issue?

Any help would be great.

    Try below to set up an asynchronous web method:

    [WebMethod]
public async Task<string> GetUserData()
{
    try
    {
        var graphClient = new GraphServiceClient();
        var user = await graphClient.Users.GetAsync();
        return user.DisplayName;
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        return ex.Message;
    }
}
