postman - post application/json data

Question

How can I send application/json data through postman, so that i can recieve the same data in nodejs server as req.body. I have tried raw body json in postman which sends the data as application/json, but data is available in server as req.rawBody. I need to get the same in req.body. Is there any such option

Answer 1

Click on x-www-form-urlencoded tab and enter the body. Now you can receive the body using req.body in backend.

Answer 2

First, you must choose an http method that supports a body like "POST", "PUT", or "PATCH". Because "GET" and "DELETE" don't support a body.

Then you choose a data type of "raw" and paste/type your JSON data.

Answer 3

This may solve your problem. Did u try this in your main .js file?

  app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({
     extended: true
  }));
  app.use(bodyParser.json());

Answer 4

只需在服务器文件中使用以下语法

const bodyParser = require('body-parser') const cors = require('cors'); app.use(cors()) // for crossOrigin Access
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({extended: false})) app.use(bodyParser.json())

Answer 5

If you want to send files with a json you can use the multiform-data in postman. use multer npm extension to get the files and use JSON.parse(request.body) to pars the json and access its fields.
