In postman, what is the difference between the Params
and the Body
tabs?. I noticed that when I was trying to perform a PUT
request, if I add the key
and value
in Params
my PUT
request doesn't seem to update what I intend to update but if I perform the PUT
request in Body
and have the form-data
selected then the intended update happens.
Params correspond to the request parameters that are appended to the request URL.they are most used with GET requests. On the other hand, Body is the actual request body (usually it defines the request payload or the data that needs to be processed by the request). PUT and POST requests read usually the data from the body of the request and not from the params.
