I am not receiving the POST data in the API

Hello everyone!

I am doing an integration for my marketing company. Zapier is wonderful and I have not had any problems with the authentication and the creation of the triggers. The problem I have when performing the action is not working correctly.

I have created an action of type "create" and in the field designer I have added a field of type string. When I configure everything in the API Configuration section and it is time to perform a test, the values created in the input designer do not arrive on my server. Only the GET data from the authentication arrives, but no trace of the POST data (input designer values).

Does anyone know what the problem is and what the solution is?

Thank you!

As it is a POST call, I tried to obtain the data through $ _POST or $ _REQUEST in PHP, however the json call that zapier makes needs to obtain the information with file_get_contents ('php://input')

    Haha! That was quite a journey! I’m sorry - I didn’t have a chance to catch this. Would you mind, if you get a chance posting the solution for everyone else?
