This is my ajax request call
$.ajax({ url: '/refresh', type: 'GET', contentType: "application/json", data: { Name: $("#inputName").val(), Url: $("#inputUrl").val() }, success: function(data) { console.log('form submitted.' + data); } }); This is the GET route in nodejs
app.get('/refresh', function(req, res) { console.log("My data" + JSON.stringify(req.body)); //other operations } How can i get the data which is passed from ajax call in my js?? Please help!! Thanks a lot!
jQuery's .ajax() method sends the data property as a query string for GET requests, so in your Express code you have to retrieve that data from req.query instead of from req.body.
You can simply use req.query for that:
const id = req.query._some_query_param; // $_GET["id"] // Sample URL: https://foo.bar/items?id=234 app.get("/items",function(req,res){ const id = req.query.id; //further operations to perform }); If you want to get the route parameters you could use req.params which only gets the route parameters and not the query string parameters.
For example:
// Sample URL: https://foo.bar/items/322 app.get("items/:id",function(req,res){ const id = req.params.id; //further operations to perform });
