Read POST request in Apex

Hi All,

 

To read the GET parameters from the URL, we use:
ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get(<name>);

How can I read POST parameters from the URL ?

 

Thanks,
Pragati

If  you send parameters with URL they can be accessed by GET method only this is basic way of working of forms.

Hi Abhay,

 

Thanks for the quick response.

Is it mentioned somewhere in the salesforce documentation that Apex can only read GET parameters ?

Hi Abhay,

 

Thanks for helping me out.

Now I understood that for reading parameters sent through GET or POST mechanism, we use the same code i.e ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get(<param name>);

 

But my client reported the issue that if he sends the request through GET instead of POST, system works fine. He would like to have the functionality working in POST call as well.

 

What could be the cause for this, any suggestions or ideas ?

 

Thanks,
