Dispatching POST request doesn't send the second argument about vuex-rest-api HOT 5 CLOSED

Glad you find the solution by yourself. :)

Your server should work fine. You have to dispatch the actions as written here: https://github.com/christianmalek/vuex-rest-api#calling-the-actions

// wrong
this.$store.dispatch("addTodo", body)

// correct
this.$store.dispatch("addTodo", {data: body})

I've changed the dispatch as shown: this.$store.dispatch("addTodo", {data: body});, and I still get an empty json object on the server. Is there anything special that needs to happen for the data to be sent to the server properly? Does Axios normally send the data object as a request body? I'm also logging my object before sending it and confirming that the expected data is there before sending it.

Edit: I've confirmed with postman that I can receive a body on my express server.

Edit: I figured it out, my object literal was not a properly formatted JSON string. You can close this issue now.

Yes. This should work.

How do you log it? If you use an axios interceptor you have to return the config (see https://github.com/mzabriskie/axios#interceptors).

I logged it on the server with a console log. I figured out with Postman that it was improperly formatted JSON that was the problem. I fixed it on the client and I can now send items to the server. Thank you for the help!
