Solution

  • the HTTP method always removed and all posted data removed from request body

    In the screenshot you shared, we can find that the request you captured is a OPTIONS request (preflight request), not actual POST request. So the data you posted is not in request body.

    Besides, the following code snippet works well on my side, you can refer to it.

    var student = {'name' : 'testuser', 'age' : 29};
    
    const headers = new HttpHeaders().set('Content-Type','application/json');
    
    this.http.post<Student>('https://xxxx/student',JSON.stringify(student),{headers:headers})
    .subscribe(data => {
      console.log(data);
    });
    

    Controller and Action

    [Route("[controller]")]
    [ApiController]
    public class StudentController : ControllerBase
    {
        [HttpPost]
        public IActionResult Post(Student student)
        {
            return Ok(student);
        }
    }
    

    Test Result
