Body
Reqable supports multiple types of request bodies, including:
Tap the Content Type drop-down menu to switch the request body type:
Request bodies support the use of Environment Variables.
JSON
JSON is the most common request body type. Reqable provides an editor with syntax highlighting support.
The JSON type automatically appends Content-Type: application/json and Content-Length to Built-in Headers. The Content-Length value is calculated automatically when the request is sent.
JSON data supports comments. Commented content will not be sent with the request.
Formatting, minifying, and expand operations are not currently supported for JSON content that contains comments.
Text
The simplest request body type:
The Text type automatically appends Content-Type: text/plain and Content-Length to Built-in Headers. The Content-Length value is calculated automatically when the request is sent.
XML
The XML request body type supports syntax highlighting.
The XML type automatically appends Content-Type: application/xml and Content-Length to Built-in Headers. The Content-Length value is calculated automatically when the request is sent.
Raw
The Raw type is similar to Text, except that it does not automatically append Content-Type to Built-in Headers, making it suitable for custom types defined by the user.
Form-data
Form-data supports three part types: Single-line Text, Multi-line Text, and File.
Tap the more button on the right to open the part action menu, including changing type, moving position, editing headers, deleting, and more.
For multi-line text, tap to open the edit dialog for modification.
Reqable also supports editing the header information of each part.
The Multipart type automatically appends Content-Type: multipart/form-data and Content-Length to Built-in Headers. The Content-Length value is calculated automatically when the request is sent.
There is no need to add Boundary manually. Reqable automatically generates it when the request is sent.
Urlencode
The Urlencode form type is a set of key-value pairs combined in the following format:
foo=bar&hello=reqable
By default, form data can be edited in table mode.
It can also be switched to text mode for editing. In text mode, // comments are supported for unchecking items.
The Urlencode type automatically appends Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded and Content-Length to Built-in Headers. The Content-Length value is calculated automatically when the request is sent.
File
The File type supports selecting a file as the request body. You can choose a file through the system file manager, or drag it directly into the dotted area.
The File type automatically appends the corresponding Content-Type (guessed automatically) and Content-Length (calculated automatically when the request is sent) to Built-in Headers.
