Hey everyone,
I'm trying to send a JSON array to an API via HTTP POST, get a response and print it.
I tried using cURL to do so, but it doesn't seem to work. I simply get zero response, a blank page.
My request:
<?php
$data = array(
"login" => "myLogin",
"password" => "myPassword",
"id" => "12345",
"tag" => "test"
);
$json_data = json_encode($data);
$ch = curl_init('URL/api/mylogin');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "POST");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $json_data);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
'Content-Type: application/json',
'Content-Length: ' . strlen($json_data))
);
$output = curl_exec($ch);
$result = json_decode($output);
echo $result;
?>
The response I should be getting:
{"status": 200, "message": "OK", "login_key": "abcdefh532h235yh"}
any idea why I'm not getting any response?
(this works ok when I manually test it using a test REST client)
Thanks,
Rani
