Works fine. Did you choose POST as the type and include a body?

What he said ^^^. I can't reproduce this at all. Everything about the responses seems to indicate POST success. Can you take pictures or video of you doing this perhaps?

[gschier]

@kryapolov, if you can provide more details, we can take a closer look. If you look a the Timeline tab for the response, you should be able to see whether or not a body was sent.

Closing this one for now until we have steps to reliably reproduce.

I've seen this bug too, it happens when i duplicate a certain request and change the URL. Everything is the same and I can verify from the timeline that no body is sent in the request.

Should a create a new issue since I found this bug in a different version?

This also happened for me and it did confused me for a while. This is a basic functionality that should always work. For me it also happened on macOS while doing PUT requests with json body and Authorization header

@flippy84 yea i had the same issue as you

[gschier]

Unfortunately it's not very actionable unless someone can specify steps to reproduce.

One thing to make sure is that there are not redirects happening in the chain. A redirect will cause the request to switch to a GET for the subsequent call.

I've got the same issue.
Version 7.0.6, OS Linux x64

sample.log

[vitalca]

Here is what I've tried to do:

• uninstalled Insomnia and purged files
• removed ~/.config/Insomnia
• rebooted the OS to clean up temporary files
• installed the latest Insomnia from packages (v7.0.6)
• created a simple POST request with attached 62MB file

Still, I get the same error, the body is not sent.
GET requests work.

Is there a way to collect more debug info for you?

Hi @vitalca 👋 ,

I've tried to reproduce the issue but until now I haven't managed to reproduce it 😞 .

created a simple POST request with attached 62MB file

Maybe it is related to the size of the payload, I'm trying to generate a 60+MB JSON file to try 🤞

Besides, I'm not sure to understand how did you create the POST request with the 62MB file? Could you be more specific?

This also happened with a very small json body, but not sure how to reproduce it either ☹️
