How do you send parameters in Postman POST request?

5 Answers

In a GET request, the parameters are sent as part of the URL. In a POST request, the parameters are sent as a body of the request, after the headers . To do a POST with HttpURLConnection, you need to write the parameters to the connection after you have opened the connection.

It would be fine to use query parameters on a POST end-point, provided they refer to an already-existing resource . The POST above has a query parameter referring to an existing resource. The body parameter defines the new resource to be created.

To send parameters in URL, write all parameter key:value pairs to a dictionary and send them as params argument to any of the GET, POST, PUT, HEAD, DELETE or OPTIONS request . then https://somewebsite.com/?param1=value1&param2=value2 would be our final url.
