How to pass data to Advanced REST client chrome extension

Question

I have a simple php file which just echoes $_POST['email']. I want to access it through rest client extension.

New extension looks totally different. This answer uses old extension.

I just added a check isset($_POST['email']). It returns else part data.

How do I post data with new extension?

Answer 1

Here's how to setup the request:

1. Since you're accessing email in $_POST you'll need to choose the POST method
2. Set the Content-Type to application/x-www-form-urlencoded
3. Add the data form entries (in your case email=emailvalue)

Then your PHP script will be able to read the value of $_POST['email']
