I am trying to do a post request with body and header. Below are some of the variations I have gone through, but for the most part I am getting error on the server saying that the parameter, 'key', was not passed in.
I tried this api in the postman and it's working there. This is how I have defined the method header in Java/Spring Boot:
@RequestMapping(value = "/getIssue", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public IssuePojo getIssue(@RequestParam("key") String key, HttpServletRequest request) {
Below are my angular's variations:
public getJiraIssue(key: string): Observable<any> {
let headers = new HttpHeaders({
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': this.idToken });
let options = { headers: headers };
const paramsA = new URLSearchParams();
paramsA.set('key', key);
let params = new HttpParams().append('key', key);
// return this.http.post(this.urlEnvironment.jiraGetIssue(), params, this.getHeaders());
console.log("headers: ", this.getHeaders());
// let obj = {
// key: key
// }
var headersA = new Headers();
headers.append('Authorization', this.idToken);
let body = new HttpParams()
.set('key', key);
return this.http.post(this.urlEnvironment.jiraGetIssue(), body, {headers: headers});
// return this.http.post(this.urlEnvironment.jiraGetIssue(), null, {headers: this.getHeaders(), params: params});
}
It seems that the body is being sent:
But this is the error I got:
timestamp: "2019-01-30T04:30:40.721+0000", status: 400, error: "Bad Request",…}
error: "Bad Request"
message: "Required String parameter 'key' is not present"
path: "/jira/getIssue"
status: 400
timestamp: "2019-01-30T04:30:40.721+0000"
trace: "org.springframework.web.bind.MissingServletRequestParameterException: Required String parameter 'key' is not present
So the key is 'Content-Type': 'application/json',
Since I'm sending json, then on the server side its expecting to map it to an Object. I managed to get it to work with string as well, but then I have to parse the string myself on the server which is not what I'm looking to do.
So 'Content-Type': 'text/plain',
=> maps to => @RequestBody String key
And 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8',
=> maps to => @RequestParam String key, @RequestParam String test,
And so the post call from Angular will look like this:
const httpBody = new HttpParams()
.set('key', 'key')
.set('test', 'test');
return this.http.post(endPoint, httpBody, this.getArgHeaders());
private getArgHeaders(): any {
const httpOptions = {
headers: new HttpHeaders({
'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8'
})
};
return httpOptions;
}
