Not able to get form-data sent from angular to node server

Question

I am sending form-data along with image-data.
But I am unable to get data on the node server when sent inside FormData.

I could see data on the angular controller on console.log.

angular code:

$scope.saveInfo = function(){
  var formData = new FormData;
  console.log('Update function');
  for(key in $scope.seller){
    formData.append(key, $scope.seller[key]);
  }
  console.log(key, $scope.seller);
  var file = $('#file')[0].files[0];
  formData.append('image', file);

  $http.put('/api/seller/businessInformation', formData, {
    transformRequest: angular.Identity,
    headers: {
      'Content-type': undefined
    }
  }).then(function(res){

  });
}

Node.Js: I could see image data on console.log(req.files);,
but console.log(req.body); prints [object object].

The best way to tackle this issue is

(i) JSON.stirngify(req.body) in your code.

(ii) See what is the data getting printed, then based on the output you can use req.body.whateverField

EDIT

You can access FormData as,

console.log(req.files.file.name);

and to access FormData you can use

var a = JSON.parse(req.body.name);
console.log(a);
