How can I post data as form data instead of a request payload?

Question

In the code below, the AngularJS $http method calls the URL, and submits the xsrf object as a \"Request Payload\" (as described in the Chrome debugger network t

Answer 1

This is what I am doing for my need, Where I need to send the login data to API as form data and the Javascript Object(userData) is getting converted automatically to URL encoded data

        var deferred = $q.defer();
        $http({
            method: 'POST',
            url: apiserver + '/authenticate',
            headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' },
            transformRequest: function (obj) {
                var str = [];
                for (var p in obj)
                    str.push(encodeURIComponent(p) + "=" + encodeURIComponent(obj[p]));
                return str.join("&");
            },
            data: userData
        }).success(function (response) {
            //logics
            deferred.resolve(response);
        }).error(function (err, status) {
           deferred.reject(err);
        });

This how my Userdata is

var userData = {
                grant_type: 'password',
                username: loginData.userName,
                password: loginData.password
            }
