Is it possible to put two URLs in an AJAX request?

Question

I have following code in my send.js:

 function send_upload_file(){
        var FD = new FormData();
       FD.append( $this.name, $this.value);
        $.ajax({
            url: 'upload',
            type: 'POST',
            processData: false,
            contentType: false,
            cache: false,
            data: FD,

            success: function (data) { 
            console.log('ok');
            },
            error: function () {
                alert("ERROR in upload");
            }
        });
    }

Can I put two links inside url:? (e.g url: 'upload, send')

Have you tried it? Did it work? No? Did you find any docs that say it _could_ work? What would you expect the browser to do? Load both urls simultaniously, one after each other? — Jeff, Dec 21 '16 at 12:05
you can of course start another ajax in one of the callbacks (success, error) — Jeff, Dec 21 '16 at 12:06
No but you could write one script on the server called `upload_send` and then inside that controller do both functions — RiggsFolly, Dec 21 '16 at 12:17
as many have said, no you can't do that, i'd suggest making a question oriented towards achieving your actual goal, since it's not clear what you expect/want this code to do. — Brian H., Dec 21 '16 at 12:19

No. If you wanna send two AJAX requests, you need to do it twice. But the shorthand for this would be:

var success = function () {
  console.log("OK");
};
$.post("upload", FD, success);
$.post("send", FD, success);

The above works asynchronously. If you want to do it synchronously, you need to do:

$.post("upload", FD, function () {
  console.log("OK");
  $.post("send", FD, function () {
    console.log("Sent");
  });
});

No you can't but try ajax after the first one success

$.ajax({
        url: 'upload',
        success: function (data) { 
               $.ajax({
                      url: 'send',
                   });
            },
            error: function () {
                alert("ERROR in upload");
            }
        });
