I redirect all of the requests to HTTPS with this snippet:

server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on;
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;

}

The problem is that I can not send a POST request to my server thru Nginx because it redirects to a GET request.

I use NodeJS and Express.

  • The POST is already insecure, you need to make it to https to start with. There's some discussion here: https://stackoverflow.com/q/39280361/3001761. – jonrsharpe May 26 '18 at 20:47

    Why do you send post request via http if your server use https? – NobbyNobbs May 26 '18 at 20:49

If you are willing to forget the "permanent" redirect status, I believe a 307 redirect instead of a 301 will preserve the POST.
