What is the format of this variable?

Time:04-29

i'm trying to do a POST request with an API taking a specific format of variable. But I can't figure out what the format of this is? enter image description here

The full request payload is

csrfmiddlewaretoken=XXXXXXXXX&username=Test&first_name=Test1&last_name=Test2&[email protected]&password1=Testtest24&password2=Testtest24

My goal is to be able to make a variable with the same format in angular.

CodePudding user response:

This is the application/x-www-form-urlencoded format, i.e. the same format browsers use to encode data of plain HTML forms sent to a server.

Data in this format can usually be used either by appending it to a GET request as e.g. https://example.com?foo=bar&alice=bob or within the body of a POST request with the correct Content-Type header.

When sending a request in Angular, you generally do not have to deal with this encoding as Angular itself will take care of properly encoding it before sending the data to the server.
