POST calls - Request Payload is not shown with native fetch

[vigneshshanmugam]

fetch(url, {
  method: 'post',
  headers: {
    'Accept': 'application/json',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    id: 'Hubot',
    name: 'hubot',
  })
})

The payload body is not shown on both Chrome and Firefox Dev tools. Tried even with Canary and Nightly builds.

However, the Github Fetch polyfill is properly showing the payload data.

This is not an issue with the spec (which is what this repo is for). You should consider filing an issue on Chrome and Firefox for their dev tools to support things as you wish.

Sure will do. Thanks @domenic

@vigneshshanmugam did you ever find a solution to get the payload to show?

[vigneshshanmugam]

I am using fetch-polyfill from Github, So its not causing issue for me now.

But the issue is not fixed though.

[jongbeau]

are you talking about this: https://github.com/github/fetch ?
installed with npm install whatwg-fetch ?
That's what I am using, and i'm having the request payload not showing issue.

[vigneshshanmugam]

Yeah I am using this only and getting the request payload properly showing up.

However, if you are in the latest browser the polyfill will not replace the browser's native fetch method. So under the hood you will be using the browsers fetch.

+1 Request payload is not showing on Chrome but shows in Firefox.

This should be fixed in Chrome Canary https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=457484
