Post Man Custom PHP Json API Response

Question

I am using postman to check my JSON API response from web applicaton to Mobile devices.

Here is my php code.

$checkout = new JsonSynchronization();
$checkout -> customer_id = isset($_POST['customer']) ? $_POST['customer'] : 0;
$checkout -> store_id = isset($_POST['store']) ? $_POST['store'] : 0;

$data ['customer_id']   = $checkout -> customer_id;
$data ['store_id']  = $checkout -> store_id;
echo json_encode($data);

I cant get the response as expected. What is the error?... can you please assist me ?

You are passing parameter in wrong place, Your parameter should go in Body tab. There your parameter will be as a post parameter, the place where you are currently sending is concatenation in URL, which is GET.

You're passing the data along in the URL, so PHP sets the $_GET global, rather than the $_POST. So replace all your $_POST with $_GET. Or if you definitely want to use a POST, then make sure you enter the data as form-data when you select the POST method in postman. Currently you've got them entered as URL params.

I have a different version of Postman, so it all looks a little bit different on my side, but I would remove the parameters from the URL completely, and also make sure that where you enter your form-data it says Key and Value rather than URL Paramater Key and Value (like I see it says in the image you attached.)
