I'm pretty new to swift and i tried to make a post request to a website, but couldn't come up with an working result, yet. All examples I found didn't work for me either.
I need to send a json body to https://mypostrequestdestination.com/api/
The json body only contains of one value
{State:1}
And the Header has to contain
{"Authorization": bearer "token"}
{"Accept":"application/json"}
{"Content-Type":"application/json"}
Hope someone can help me.
Thanks!
This one worked for me
let token = "here is the token"
let url = URL(string: "https://mypostrequestdestination.com/api/")!
// prepare json data
let json: [String: Any] = ["State": 1]
let jsonData = try? JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: json)
// create post request
var request = URLRequest(url: url)
request.httpMethod = "POST"
// insert json data to the request
request.httpBody = jsonData
request.addValue("application/json", forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")
request.addValue("application/json", forHTTPHeaderField: "Accept")
request.setValue( "Bearer \(token)", forHTTPHeaderField: "Authorization")
let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: request) { data, response, error in
guard let data = data, error == nil else {
print(error?.localizedDescription ?? "No data")
return
}
let responseJSON = try? JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: data, options: [])
if let responseJSON = responseJSON as? [String: Any] {
print(responseJSON)
}
}
task.resume()
