@custom does not send body

Users GraphQL
1

I have a custom mutation :

With POST the endpoint receives an empty body

type Mutation {
  auth(pass: String!, user: String!): Auth
    @custom(
      http: { url: "http://localhost:8081/auth", method: POST, body: "{pass:$pass,user:$user}" }
    )
}

On the other hand, with GET the url is correctly interpolated

type Mutation {
  auth(pass: String!, user: String!): Auth
    @custom(
      http: { url: "http://localhost:8081/auth/$user/$pass", method: GET }
    )
}

any clue ?

It is most likely due to the missing content type. When sending a JSON body the receiver must also receive the content-type.

This should resolve your issues:

type Mutation {
  auth(pass: String!, user: String!): Auth
    @custom(
      http: {
        url: "http://localhost:8081/auth",
        method: POST,
        body: "{pass:$pass,user:$user}"
        secretHeaders: ["Content-type"]
      }
    )
}
# Dgraph.Secret Content-type "application/json"

That worked, thanks !
That’s a bit a workaround I guess…
I mean, this way one is able to store only 1 Content-type to be used as secretHeader ?
