How to pass text/plain content in axios POST request in nodejs

Question

I want to pass body parameters as shown in screen shot (in text/plain format)

I am using axios in my nodejs/express project . My reqeust format is as shown below:

var config = {
    headers: {
        'Content-Length': 0,
        'Content-Type': 'text/plain'
    }
};



const testInput = (req, res) => {
    axios.post('https://api.sandbox.xyz.com/v1/order/new', { firstName: 'Marlon' }, config)
        .then(function(response) {
            console.log('saved successfully')
        })
        .catch(function(error) {
            console.log(error);
        });
};

For this how can I pass the body parameters appropriately?

Answer 1

var config = {
    headers: {
        'Content-Length': 0,
        'Content-Type': 'text/plain'
    },
   responseType: 'text'
};

1. responseType indicates the type of data that the server will respond with
2. options are arraybuffer , blob , document, json , text, stream
