Json-server: POST not saving all data

[BrianKrohn]

When I POST using the simple setup described on the project page, the post creates a new id, but does not add the title and author I specify in the JSON body.

I do a POST to: http://localhost:3000/posts
Body is: { "title": "hello world", "author": "typicode" }
Result is HTTP 201, with body: { "id": 2 }
db.json shows id 2, but that's it

What am I missing?

make sure you set content-type request header to application/json

[BrianKrohn]

It is set to application/json. The server responds 201, creates the post
record, and gives it the next available id. It just fails to create the
title and author field.

Got it. You're right, the content-type was not being set correctly. Thank you for the quick response.

@BrianKrohn, how did you add the Content-Type? I have added it on my test, but I still seem to be only able to post IDs. I'm not too sure if I need to associate it with the POST test?

Please see issue https://github.com/typicode/json-server/issues/821

Don't worry guys, I had incorrectly added the HTTP Header Manager. Thanks 👍 :)
