I tried to use Alamofire to make an API request like this:
let param = ["id":"xy", "products":[["quantity":2, "product":["id":123]]]]
Alamofire.request(url, method: .post,
parameters: param, encoding: URLEncoding.default,
headers: ["Accept": "application/json", "Content-Type": "application/json"]).responseJSON ..
I received this response:
message = "Unexpected token i in JSON at position 0";
statusCode = 400;
I also tried to make a request like this:
request.httpBody = try! JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: param)
I tried to perform the following request manually to mark sure that it was working fine:
curl -X POST http://url -d'{"id":"xy", "products" [{"quantity":2,"product":{"id":123}}]}' -H'Content-Type: application/json'
And as desired, it gave me this response:
{
"id":"xy",
"products":[
{
"quantity":2,
"product":{
"id":123
}
}
]
}
You need to send the request as
application/json
so useJSONEncoding.default
asencoding
parameter.Add-on: Also, you can loose the
Content-Type
from the header parameters.AF
takes care of that for you.
