I have checked many stack overflow questions but unable to find answer for the following problem. How can I request a post api which has parameters like get api using Alamofire Swift?
Request:
http://dev.practice.com/api/v1/test/apply?id=51&social_id=2
Body:
"url": https://www.social.com/some_image_url
I have tried with the following way but it's not working:
let urlString = "http://dev.practice.com/api/v1/test/apply?id=51&social_id=2"
Alamofire.request(urlString, method: .post, parameters: ["url": "https://www.social.com/some_image_url"],encoding: JSONEncoding.httpBody, headers: header).responseJSON {
response in
switch response.result {
case .success:
print(response)
break
case .failure(let error):
print(error)
}
}
The answer is:
We have to request the get api like parameters as queryString and post body parameters as httpBody with the request.

I'm trying to login to a web service as follows:
func Login(completionHandler:#escaping (Bool) -> ()) {
let url = MyUrl
let parameters: Parameters = [
"Password":password,
"StayLoggedIn":NSNumber(value: true),
"UserName":username
]
var headers:HTTPHeaders = commonHeaders()
headers["Content-Type"] = "application/json;charset=UTF-8"
Alamofire.request(url, method:.post, parameters:parameters, headers:headers).responseJSON { response in
switch response.result {
case .success:
debugPrint(response)
case .failure(let error):
print(error)
}
}
}
Somehow, the server returns a 501 error.
I'm in the process of rewriting an Obj-c app in Swift, and replacing NSURLSessions with Alamofire into the bargain.
What I see in my working obj-c app, is that the headers sent to the server contain
Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8
As you can see, I explicitly add this header to my request, but somehow, it is not sent to the server.
What I also see, is that my login credentials are not sent to the server.
So, I guess my question is: how do I tell Alamofire to use the correct encoding/content type?
try this encoding application/x-www-form-urlencoded instead of application/json;charset=UTF-8
We are needing to control the parameter order in an Alamofire request. The parameters are supplied to Alamofire as a dictionary, and as such are not ordered.
Have also tried using an adapter, but by that time the body is encoded data, not thinking I can change that.
We need to order because of oauth, our server is using the params as part of the key and expecting a specific order.
Just in case, here is our code:
let parameters: Parameters = ["id": "userID","service": "token"]
Alamofire.request("https://ourhost.com", method: .post, parameters: parameters, encoding: URLEncoding.default, headers: headers)
.responseString { response in
print("Success: \(response.result.isSuccess)")
print("Response String: \(response.result.value)")
}
.responseJSON { response in
print(response.result)
switch response.result {
case .success:
print(response.result.value)
break;
default:
print(response.result.error!)
break
}
}
Would welcome a way to order these items.
I am using Alamofire for calling my API .
below is is the code.
func alamofirePost() {
let headers: HTTPHeaders = [ "content-type": "x-www-form-urlencoded"]
let todosEndpoint: String = "http://54.244.108.186:4000/api/post_upc"
let newTodo: [String: Any] = ["UPC": codeTextView.text, "DATE_TIME": currentTime() ]
print("i am in alamo")
Alamofire.request(todosEndpoint, method: .post, parameters: newTodo ,encoding: JSONEncoding.default,headers: headers )
.responseJSON { response in
guard response.result.error == nil else {
// got an error in getting the data, need to handle it
print("error calling POST on /todos/1")
print(response)
print(response.result.error!)
return
}
when i call the function , it is trying to inserting null values in the database
INSERT INTO `UPC`(`UPC`,`DATE_TIME`) VALUES (NULL,NULL)
Below is the response when i do in postman app.
can someone please help
Firstly in your Postman request you are POSTing your body as x-www-form-urlencoded but in your Swift example you are specifying that header as well. BUT you're actually submitting your POST body as a JSON payload. In contrast, your Postman request is a set of key/value pairs.
Additionally, the two keys appear to be named differently from your Swift example and your Postman example.
Swift uses UPC and DATE_TIME while Postman has upc_app and dttm_app so at a minimum you'll want to ensure you send along what your API expects
every one,
I'm having an issue with Alamofire 3.0, when I post data, it seems the data is being sent twice.
I looked up on the web, found that a bug about special caratères was fixed, but I still get the error.
Anyone has an idea. I'm using a parameter in the header called X-Authorization.
Here is an extract of the code i'm using:
static func postData (url: String,token: String,params :Dictionary<String,AnyObject>){
print("POSTINGGGGGG")
Alamofire.request(.POST, url, parameters: params,headers: ["X-Authorization": token])
.responseJSON { response in
switch response.result {
case .Success(let data): break
//let resultJSON = JSON(data).dictionaryValue
// print(data)
case .Failure(let error):
print(error)
}
}
}
Thank you in advance,
Morgan
I am using Alamofire to make a post request to server. The post request is working fine.
Issue: When the post request is made, it returns some data which I need. How can I store/ retrieve that data
The POST Request:
Alamofire.request(.POST, postURL, parameters: params)
to get the response closure add
.response { request, response, data, error in }
to the end of your code
ie
Alamofire.request(.POST, "http://httpbin.org/get", parameters: ["foo": "bar"])
.response { request, response, data, error in
print(request)
print(response)
print(data)
print(error)
}
If you are using the latest version of AlamoFire.
If you are using the latest version of AlamoFire.
Try this working fine for me.(Change request arguments based on your need)
let url1 = "http://yoururl.com"
let head = [ "Accept": "application/json;charset=UTF-8",
"Content-Type": "application/json;charset=UTF-8"] // Adding headers
let p = ["Email":"anything","Password": "123"] // Adding parameters if any
Alamofire.request(.POST,url1, parameters: p, encoding : .JSON, headers : head)
.responseJSON { response in
print(response.request) // original URL request
print(response.response) // URL response
print(response.data) // server data
print(response.result) // result of response serialization
}
