How to do a $http GET with some data in AngularJS?

I want to make a Get request to my Backend, but I want to verify some user credentials before sending the response object.

Here is my code:

$scope.ge

You're most likely going to need to use a POST method instead of a GET method.

But to do it with a GET method:

From AngularJS passing data to $http.get request:

A HTTP GET request can't contain data to be posted to the server. However you can add a query string to the request.

angular.http provides an option for it params.

$http({
     url: user.details_path, 
     method: "GET",
     params: {user_id: user.id}  
});

And using AngularJS to POST instead:

$http.post('/someUrl', {msg:'hello word!'}).
  then(function(response) {
    // this callback will be called asynchronously
    // when the response is available
  }, function(response) {
    // called asynchronously if an error occurs
    // or server returns response with an error status.
  });
