Restangular POST always empty

Question

I think I\'m not understanding how a POST is done in a RESTful api. When creating a new object in Restangular with this:

var user = {name: \"John\", id:\"123         


        

Answer 1

I'm the creator of Restangular. Posts should be done to collections, not to elements. So, if you want to add a user to the building, you should do something like:

Restangular.one("building", 5).post('users', user).then(function(postedUser) {
    console.log("Success");
})

Check the post method here: https://github.com/mgonto/restangular#element-methods

The signature is path to subelement collection, element to POST.

Bests!
