How to add array to okhttp body (POST)

Question

Now i`m adding array as string to body:

RequestBody body = new FormEncodingBuilder()
    .add("profiles", "[122, 125, 336]")
    .build();

But the server need array on post parameter. How can i add array instead of string? Is it posible with okhttp?

Answer 1

You are currently posting profiles as a string. You will want to mimic a POST for a checkbox form field for profiles

RequestBody body = new FormEncodingBuilder()
    .add("profiles[0]", "122")
    .add("profiles[1]", "125")
    .add("profiles[2]", "336")
    .build();
