QWebEngineHttpRequest - Post request

Gulivert

Hi there,

I tried to create a post request with QWebEngineHttpRequest to load it in QWebEngineView but this is not working as expected unfortunately.

Here is the goal. I have currently an simple http get request, and I would like to transform it in a post request, the server allow both requests then this should be not a problem of the server but from my request.

Here is an example. First I build my request to be a get (this works but is unsecured).

// Create the base URL
this->apiUrl.setScheme("https");
this->apiUrl.setHost("www.domainname.com");
this->apiUrl.setPath("/path/of/the/api/end/point/");

// Create the query
qurlqr.addQueryItem("Class", "Patient");
qurlqr.addQueryItem("Method", "CreateOrder");
qurlqr.addQueryItem("LoginName", login);
qurlqr.addQueryItem("Password", password);
...
qurlqr.addQueryItem("patCountry", "CH");
qurlqr.addQueryItem("treatmentCode", "");

this->apiUrl.setQuery(qurlqr);

// Create an engine view widget
QWebEngineView *webView = new QWebEngineView(this);
 webView->load(this->apiUrl);

This code works and do a GET request. Now I would like to transform this query in a post request inside my QwebEngineView, to do that I wanna create a QWebEngineHttpRequest .

Then here is the code to transform this :

// Create the base URL
this->apiUrl.setScheme("https");
this->apiUrl.setHost("www.domainname.com");
this->apiUrl.setPath("/path/of/the/api/end/point/");

QWebEngineHttpRequest request = QWebEngineHttpRequest();
request.setUrl(this->apiUrl);
request.setMethod(QWebEngineHttpRequest::Post);
request.setHeader(QByteArray("Content-Type"), QByteArray("application/x-wwwform-urlencoded"));

// Create the query
qurlqr.addQueryItem("Class", "Patient");
qurlqr.addQueryItem("Method", "CreateOrder");
qurlqr.addQueryItem("LoginName", login);
qurlqr.addQueryItem("Password", password);
...
qurlqr.addQueryItem("patCountry", "CH");
qurlqr.addQueryItem("treatmentCode", "");

// Convert Query URL to QByteArray and set post data to request
QByteArray postData = qurlqr.toString(QUrl::FullyEncoded).toUtf8();
request.setPostData(postData);

QWebEngineView *webView = new QWebEngineView(this);
webView->load(request);

But unfortunately this is not working, I think my problem is comming from postData but not sure. Do you have any advice to help me ? Any help will be appreciate.

AAAAAA I'm stupid, I did a spelling error !!!!

request.setHeader(QByteArray("Content-Type"), QByteArray("application/x-wwwform-urlencoded"));

must be

request.setHeader(QByteArray("Content-Type"), QByteArray("application/x-www-form-urlencoded"));

And it is working :-)
