Originally created by @AndrewBastin on GitHub (Oct 3, 2019).
Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/hoppscotch/hoppscotch/issues/180

Describe the bug
The POST request body (from the built-in JSON editor) does not seem to reach the recipient.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Create a test server (like this in express)
Send a request to the server in postwoman with some JSON
We get '{}' as the POST body printed on the server side

Expected behavior
Well, the server should display the correct body

The first 2 are through postwoman (preflight and the actual request respectively)
The third is from Postman which is the intended result

chuckle i'm in danger

Did you check the network tab and the request info? Check network tab and see if the requests has body.

POST for other servers seems to be working for both raw and key-value pairs.

Oops, sorry, it was a thing with body-parser and Content-Type definitions 😓

Closing the issue, sorry guys 😅
