HI Peter, I did some testing with Jacque and found that her LC7 was sending the wrong content-type when posting to the PHP script.
In case anyone is interested: It was using a content type of 'application/json’ which would have made sense if the PHP script was written to accept the json data directly. However, it was expecting the POST data to be encoded in name/value format: variableA=valueA&variableB=valueB. In this case, it required the json data stored in a variable called json: i.e. json=<json data> Changing the headers as follows before the POST resolved the issue: set the httpHeaders to “content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" As I mentioned to Jacque, the json data itself needs to be urlEncoded.
