How to receive json data using HTTP POST request in Django 1.6?

Question

I am learning Django 1.6.
I want to post some JSON using HTTP POST request and I am using Django for this task for learning.
I tried to use request.POST[\'data

Answer 1

You're confusing form-encoded and JSON data here. request.POST['foo'] is for form-encoded data. You are posting raw JSON, so you should use request.body.

received_json_data=json.loads(request.body)
