AngularJS Factory : JSon and Authorization

Question

I have a problem with my AngularJS factory. Actually, I have to make a request which includes a JSon variable, and it has an Authorization header.

It looks like this :

createEvent:function(event){
    return $http.get(url, {
        headers: { 'Authorization' : token }
    })
}

The event variable is a JSon object, and I want to get it in the $http.get function as I have a Validator in the backend which tests this json file. Is there any way for me to pass this variable here ?

Thanks !

Answer 1

You can pass event json as data.

createEvent:function(event){
    return $http.get(url, {
        headers: { 'Authorization' : token },
        data : event
    })
}

Answer 2

You can simply send the data using params object when using GET http method. Other thing is if you are sending JSON string you need to JSON.parse it.

...
$http.get(url, {
    headers: {'Authorization': token},
    params: event // or "JSON.parse(event)" if event is json string
});

Answer 3

It looks strange that you use the 'GET' method to send data.

createEvent:function(event){
  return $http.post(url, {
      headers: { 'Authorization' : token },
      data : event
  })
}

seems better.

Also check that your content type is correctly set.
