JQuery, send JSON object using GET method

Question

I am trying to send a json object using GET method. My code:

$.ajax({
           url: \"/api/endpoint\",
           type: \"GET\",
           data: {\"sort\"         


        

Answer 1

There are a few places where you have gone a bit wrong.

• It is not CONTENT_LENGTH, its Content-Length.
• Do not set Content-Length header, the browser will do it for you.
• Get request has content-length = 0.

Something like the below should work for you:

$.ajax({
     url: "/api/endpoint?parameters="+encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify({"sort":"date"})),
     type: "GET",
     ...
});
