[FIXED] How do I POST XML data to a webservice with Postman?

Issue

I want POST an XML request to a webservice using Postman. However, when I check the available request formats, I only see options for form-data, x-www-form-urlencoded, raw, and binary.

How do I POST an XML request to a webservice with Postman?

Solution

Send XML requests with the raw data type, then set the Content-Type to text/xml.

---

1. After creating a request, use the dropdown to change the request type to POST.

   

2. Open the Body tab and check the data type for raw.

   

3. Open the Content-Type selection box that appears to the right and select either XML (application/xml) or XML (text/xml)

   

4. Enter your raw XML data into the input field below

   

5. Click Send to submit your XML Request to the specified server.
