I'm receiving data from an API (asana) when an event was made in my workspace via a POST method in a file called asanatarget.php
The data is correct and i can store it in file when received. Looks like that:
{"events":"resource":xxx,"user":xxx,"type":"story","action":"added","created_at":"2019-02-20T14:48:09.142Z","parent":xxx}]}
In the same file I send the data to a new file with AJAX with GET method:
asanatarget.php
<?php
if(isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_HOOK_SECRET'])) {
$h = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_HOOK_SECRET'];
header('X-Hook-Secret:' . $h);
exit;
}
?>

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.3/jquery.min.js"></script>

<body>
<?php
$input = file_get_contents('php://input');
if ($input) {
$entries = json_decode(file_get_contents('php://input'), true);
file_put_contents('targetasanaDATA' . time() . '.txt', json_encode($entries));
?>
<script>
$( document ).ready(function() {
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "/asanawebhook", // Working with laravel, the route is well defined
data: <?php echo json_encode($entries); ?>,
dataType: "json",
success: function(response){
console.log("success " + response);
},
error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) { // What to do if we fail
console.log(JSON.stringify(jqXHR));
}
});
});
</script>
<?php
}
?>
</body>
</html>
When i'm directly loading asanatarget.php with test data, it's working fine and the data is passed to /asanawebhook but when the data is passed directly from the api, it's not working. I checked and the data is always correct
Your PHP script generates only a HTML page (basically, a text).
The javascript can be interpreted and executed by a browser. But if no browser reads this page and execute it, nothing happens. PHP generates a webpage, nobody reads it, and things ends here.
You can use PHP too to send data via POST. You can build your query with http_build_query() and use file_get_contents().
