Put request with simple string as request body

Question

When I execute the following code from my browser the server gives me 400 and complains that the request body is missing  Anybody got a clue about how I can pass a simple string and have it send as the request body    let content    Hello world    axios put url  content  then response   gt        resolve response data content       response   gt        this handleEditError response         If I wrap content in    it comes thru  But then the server receives it as a string beginning with   and ending with    Which seems odd   After fiddling around I discovered that the following works    let req         url      method   PUT       data  content       axios req  then response   gt        resolve response data content       response   gt        this handleEditError response         But shouldn t the first one work as well

I was having trouble sending plain text and found that I needed to surround the body s value with double quotes   const request   axios put url         values guid               headers             Accept    application json            Content-type    application json            Authorization    Bearer     sessionStorage getItem  jwt              My webapi server method signature is this   public IActionResult UpdateModelGuid  FromRoute  string guid   FromBody  string newGuid

simply put in headers  Content-Type    application json  and the sent data in body JSON stringify string

I solved this by overriding the default Content-Type   const config     headers    Content-Type    application json      axios put url  content  config  then response   gt                  Based on m experience  the default Conent-Type is application x-www-form-urlencoded for strings  and application json for objects  including arrays   Your server probably expects JSON

Another simple solution is to surround the content variable in your given code with braces like this   let content    Hello world    axios put url   content   then response   gt        resolve response data content       response   gt        this handleEditError response        Caveat  But this will not send it as string  it will wrap it in a json body that will look like this   content   quot Hello world quot
