Unlike jQuery in order to read raw JSON you will need to decode it in PHP   print r json decode file get contents  php   input    true      php   input is a read-only stream that allows you to read raw data from the request body     POST is form variables  you will need to switch to form radiobutton in postman then use   foo bar amp foo2 bar2   To post raw json with jquery     ajax        url     rest index php        data   JSON stringify  foo  bar          type    POST        contentType    application json
