jQuery POST请求后的空主体

Question

I need your help with a problem concerning the Forge Autodesk Viewer I'm developping, based on this tutorial . The viewer includes a feature to create buckets, and this feature is not working on my version of the viewer because the POST request to create the bucket contains no body.

The bucket creation feature is fully functionnal on the tutorial viewer, and I based my code on this one. I'm pretty new at this, so if I miss some essential parts, I'll provide them as soon as possible !

The bucket creation code, client-side :

  function createNewBucket() {
    var bucketKey = $('#newBucketKey').val();
    var policyKey = $('#newBucketPolicyKey').val();
    console.log(bucketKey)
    jQuery.post({
      url: '/api/forge/oss/buckets',
      contentType: 'application/json',
      data: JSON.stringify({ 'bucketKey': bucketKey, 'policyKey': policyKey }),
      success: function (res) {
        $('#appBuckets').jstree(true).refresh();
        $('#createBucketModal').modal('toggle');
      },
      error: function (err) {
        if (err.status == 409)
          alert('Bucket already exists - 409: Duplicated')
        console.log(err);
      }
    });
  }

The bucket-creation code, server-side :

// POST /api/forge/oss/buckets - creates a new bucket.
// Request body must be a valid JSON in the form of { "bucketKey": "<new_bucket_name>" }.
router.post('/buckets', async (req, res, next) => {
    let payload = new PostBucketsPayload();
    console.log(req)
    payload.bucketKey = config.credentials.client_id.toLowerCase() + '-' + req.body.bucketKey;
    payload.policyKey = 'transient'; // expires in 24h
    try {
        // Create a bucket using [BucketsApi](https://github.com/Autodesk-Forge/forge-api-nodejs-client/blob/master/docs/BucketsApi.md#createBucket).
        await new BucketsApi().createBucket(payload, {}, req.oauth_client, req.oauth_token);
        res.status(200).end();
    } catch(err) {
        next(err);
    }
});

The expected request (as displayed on VSCode, from the working code) :

Since your request's readable property is true , it's possible that the express application hasn't parsed its body yet. Make sure to setup the JSON parsing middleware as shown on this line in the tutorial. With this middleware, your express app will automatically read the body of any incoming request with Content-Type: application/json .
