PrestaShop ignores POST JSON data

[rhythm]

Hey,

I am sending data to custom PHP file on Prestashop in JSON format, with the header Content-Type: application/json.

I tried Tools::getValue and _POST("MyVariable"), var_dump(_POST) shows nothing. If I select to send it as a form data, everything appears.

However, that's not the choice I have. I need to POST JSON data to PRESTASHOP and use it on my custom controller.

I think u need add a header to your request:

headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8'}
