Im just trying to print query Parameters or Json data parameters as output, but body and query are always empty when called using API POST Endpoint.

Executing Manually works:

 req:[object Object]
 payloadundefined
 bodyRaw:{
  "data": "{\"name\":\"testName\",\"email\":\"test@email.com\",\"content\":\"testContent\"}"
}
 body:"{\n  \"data\": \"{\\\"name\\\":\\\"testName\\\",\\\"email\\\":\\\"jtest@email.com\\\",\\\"content\\\":\\\"testContent\\\"}\"\n}"
 headers:{"host":"66087cd8e79f8:3000","x-appwrite-trigger":"http","x-appwrite-user-id":"66081b69033c6a######","x-appwrite-user-jwt":"##########JKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJ1c2VySWQiOiI2NjA4MWI2OTAzM2M2YTM2YWFhYSIsInNlc3Npb25JZCI6IjY2MDgxYjg5Mjg4NGRlODkxYzQxIiwiZXhwIjoxNzEx##########.40qodo##########-NCeOGOA2YwvSoLhouBmQC#####","x-appwrite-continent-eu":"false","content-type":"application/x-www-form-urlencoded","connection":"keep-alive","content-length":"88"}
 scheme:http
 method:POST
 url:http://66087cd8e79f8:3000/
 host:66087cd8e79f8
 port:3000
 path:/
 queryString:
 query:{}
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Parsed form data: {"{\n  \"data\": \"{\\\"name\\\":\\\"testName\\\",\\\"email\\\":\\\"test@email.com\\\",\\\"content\\\":\\\"testContent\\\"}\"\n}":""}
response: {"{\n  \"data\": \"{\\\"name\\\":\\\"testName\\\",\\\"email\\\":\\\"test@email.com\\\",\\\"content\\\":\\\"testContent\\\"}\"\n}":""}

Same called by API (sending X-Appwrite-Project=MYPROJECT, X-Appwrite-Key=MYKEY, Content-Type=application/json, and raw data as:

{
  "data": "{\"name\":\"JP\",\"email\":\"jtraverso@gmail.com\",\"content\":\"hola\"}"
}

Response:

req:[object Object]
 payloadundefined
 bodyRaw:
 body:""
 headers:{"host":"cloud.appwrite.io","x-appwrite-trigger":"http","x-appwrite-continent-eu":"false","connection":"keep-alive","content-length":"0"}
 scheme:http
 method:POST
 url:http://cloud.appwrite.io/
 host:cloud.appwrite.io
 port:80
 path:/
 queryString:
 query:{}
Content-Type: undefined

Summary

Developers are facing issues when calling the API POST Endpoint as the body and query parameters are empty. However, when executed manually, it works fine. The issue seems to be related to the headers and content type not being recognized properly when calling through the API. The solution might involve checking and ensuring the correct content type is set when making the API call.
