Rest - Postman request with body Form data to json

In Postman, you can send a request with form data and convert it to JSON format easily. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Open Postman.

  2. Select the HTTP method (e.g., POST).

  3. Enter the URL you want to send the request to.

  4. Go to the "Body" tab.

  5. Select the "form-data" option.

  6. Add the key-value pairs for your form data.

    For example:

    • Key: username, Value: john_doe
    • Key: password, Value: secretpassword

  7. Now, you can use a script or an online tool to convert the form data to JSON format. Here's a simple example of how you can convert form data to JSON using JavaScript:

    const formData = new FormData(); formData.append('username', 'john_doe'); formData.append('password', 'secretpassword'); const jsonObject = {}; formData.forEach((value, key) => { jsonObject[key] = value; }); const jsonString = JSON.stringify(jsonObject); console.log(jsonString);

    Run this script in a browser's developer console or a Node.js environment.

  8. Copy the JSON output from the script.

  9. Go back to Postman, change the body type to "raw", and select "JSON (application/json)".

  10. Paste the JSON content into the body.

  11. Click "Send" to make the request with the converted JSON data.

This way, you can simulate sending form data in a JSON format using Postman. Adjust the key-value pairs and the conversion script based on your specific form data and requirements.

Examples

  1. Postman request with Form Data to JSON using Express and body-parser middleware

    // Before // No specific code for converting Form Data to JSON // After const express = require('express'); const bodyParser = require('body-parser'); const app = express(); app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true })); app.use(bodyParser.json()); app.post('/convert', (req, res) => { const formData = req.body; // Convert Form Data to JSON const jsonData = JSON.stringify(formData); res.json({ result: jsonData }); }); app.listen(3000, () => { console.log('Server is running on port 3000'); });

    Description: Use the Express framework and body-parser middleware to handle a POST request with Form Data and convert it to JSON in a Node.js server.

  2. Postman request with Form Data to JSON using Spring Boot and @RequestBody annotation

    // Before // No specific code for converting Form Data to JSON // After @RestController public class FormToJsonController { @PostMapping("/convert") public ResponseEntity<String> convertFormDataToJson(@RequestBody MultiValueMap<String, String> formData) { // Convert Form Data to JSON String jsonData = new Gson().toJson(formData); return ResponseEntity.ok(jsonData); } }

    Description: Use Spring Boot with the @RequestBody annotation to handle a POST request with Form Data and convert it to JSON in a Java-based application.

  3. Postman request with Form Data to JSON using Flask and request module

    # Before # No specific code for converting Form Data to JSON # After from flask import Flask, request, jsonify app = Flask(__name__) @app.route('/convert', methods=['POST']) def convert_form_data_to_json(): form_data = request.form.to_dict() # Convert Form Data to JSON json_data = jsonify(form_data) return json_data

    Description: Use Flask and the request module to handle a POST request with Form Data and convert it to JSON in a Python-based server.

  4. Postman request with Form Data to JSON using ASP.NET Core and [FromBody] attribute

    // Before // No specific code for converting Form Data to JSON // After [ApiController] [Route("[controller]")] public class ConvertController : ControllerBase { [HttpPost("convert")] public IActionResult ConvertFormDataToJson([FromBody] Dictionary<string, string> formData) { // Convert Form Data to JSON var jsonData = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(formData); return Ok(jsonData); } }

    Description: Use ASP.NET Core with the [FromBody] attribute to handle a POST request with Form Data and convert it to JSON in a C#-based application.

  5. Postman request with Form Data to JSON using Django and JsonResponse

    # Before # No specific code for converting Form Data to JSON # After from django.http import JsonResponse from django.views.decorators.http import require_POST @require_POST def convert_form_data_to_json(request): form_data = request.POST.dict() # Convert Form Data to JSON json_data = JsonResponse(form_data) return json_data

    Description: Use Django and JsonResponse to handle a POST request with Form Data and convert it to JSON in a Python-based web framework.

  6. Postman request with Form Data to JSON using Express and express-formidable middleware

    // Before // No specific code for converting Form Data to JSON // After const express = require('express'); const formidableMiddleware = require('express-formidable'); const app = express(); app.use(formidableMiddleware()); app.post('/convert', (req, res) => { const formData = req.fields; // Convert Form Data to JSON const jsonData = JSON.stringify(formData); res.json({ result: jsonData }); }); app.listen(3000, () => { console.log('Server is running on port 3000'); });

    Description: Use the express-formidable middleware with Express to handle a POST request with Form Data and convert it to JSON in a Node.js server.

  7. Postman request with Form Data to JSON using Spring MVC and @RequestParam

    // Before // No specific code for converting Form Data to JSON // After @RestController public class ConvertController { @PostMapping("/convert") public ResponseEntity<String> convertFormDataToJson(@RequestParam Map<String, String> formData) { // Convert Form Data to JSON String jsonData = new Gson().toJson(formData); return ResponseEntity.ok(jsonData); } }

    Description: Use Spring MVC with @RequestParam to handle a POST request with Form Data and convert it to JSON in a Java-based application.

  8. Postman request with Form Data to JSON using Express and body-parser with extended option

    // Before // No specific code for converting Form Data to JSON // After const express = require('express'); const bodyParser = require('body-parser'); const app = express(); app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true })); app.use(bodyParser.json()); app.post('/convert', (req, res) => { const formData = req.body; // Convert Form Data to JSON const jsonData = JSON.stringify(formData); res.json({ result: jsonData }); }); app.listen(3000, () => { console.log('Server is running on port 3000'); });

    Description: Use the express framework and body-parser middleware with the extended option set to true to handle a POST request with Form Data and convert it to JSON in a Node.js server.

  9. Postman request with Form Data to JSON using Flask and jsonify

    # Before # No specific code for converting Form Data to JSON # After from flask import Flask, request, jsonify app = Flask(__name__) @app.route('/convert', methods=['POST']) def convert_form_data_to_json(): form_data = request.form.to_dict() # Convert Form Data to JSON using jsonify json_data = jsonify(form_data) return json_data

    Description: Use Flask and the jsonify function to handle a POST request with Form Data and convert it to JSON in a Python-based server.

  10. Postman request with Form Data to JSON using Spring Boot and @ModelAttribute

    // Before // No specific code for converting Form Data to JSON // After @RestController public class ConvertController { @PostMapping("/convert") public ResponseEntity<String> convertFormDataToJson(@ModelAttribute FormData formData) { // Convert Form Data to JSON String jsonData = new Gson().toJson(formData); return ResponseEntity.ok(jsonData); } }

    Description: Use Spring Boot with the @ModelAttribute annotation to handle a POST request with Form Data and convert it to JSON in a Java-based application. Create a FormData class to represent the form data.
