Postman : POST parameters through body not QueryString

Question

Hi .... I have working on WCFRestful Services and testing these services through postman. When i call service method using postman i am passing parameters with QueryString  like this : http://localhost:12345/InvestUtiServices.svc/GetFoliosbyPAN?ApplicationID=invest&Password=Sfsdsk-JhifhR7t4/k=&AppVersion=5.0&DeviceDetails=10.172.5.99&Source=website&PAN=AADPJ3172F But base on the client request we should not pass parameters through parameters only through body from the POSTMAN.I have pass the params through body in Postman then params are not passing we get only null values when hit the service. http://localhost:12345/InvestUtiServices.svc/GetFoliosbyPAN How can i pass parameters through body only in POSTMAN.

Sorry I did not notice it is not Web API but WCF. May be you can try like this: [OperationContract(Name = Add )] [WebInvoke(Method = POST  RequestFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json BodyStyle = WebMessageBodyStyle.Wrapped)] int Add( int x int y); I may be wrong though. Try fiddler if Postman does not work.

Hi Nilesh.... can u share the code briefly that how to pass parameters a part of body in WCF Restfulservices [C# not webapi] . Like public HttpResponseMessage Post([FromBody] string para1) { ... }

For simple data types parameters are read from the URI so that's why it may not be working when you pass them in body I think some change of code is required for making parameters as part of body. public HttpResponseMessage Post([FromBody] string para1) { ... }
