Android Question Want to upload JSON data to server by using Http POST command?

[jobykpaul]

Hi
I have to upload data to the server by using http POST request and data format is JOSN string. I follow the below code...

Dim Map1 As Map
Map1.Initialize
Dim JSONGenerator As JSONGenerator
Dim JSONstring As String
Map1.put("username","user1")
Map1.put("password","abcdef")
JSONGenerator.Initialize(Map1)

Dim j As HttpJob
j.Initialize("", Me)
j.PostString("http://54.385.735.10/mobility/api/login",JSONGenerator.ToString)
Wait For (j) JobDone(j As HttpJob)
If j.Success Then
Msgbox(j.GetString,"")
endif

The JSON string is showing in the correct format.
When we try from the app, the response from the server is blank, but the same i tried from online Http POST tool it is working. Please help me to solve the issue.

Thank You

Please use [CODE]code here...[/CODE] tags when posting code.

You prrobably need to set a correct contenttype

j.PostString(...)
j.GetRequest.SetContentType("application/json")' The line AFTER poststring....

You need to set the ContentType for JSON.
Add

j.GetRequest.SetContentType("application/json")

after j.PostString

EDIT: I was too slow to beat DonManfred…
