    Default QNetworkAccessManager PUT method delete data over server

    Hi,

    I'm trying to update JSON data over a server but it is not updating, its deleting everything even if I send blank data.

    Find the implementation below,

    Qt Code:
    1. QNetworkAccessManager m_mgr;
    2. QNetworkRequest m_request;
    3. QNetworkReply *m_reply;
    4. QUrl url("https://api.predic8.de/shop/products/10");
    5. m_request.setUrl(url);
    6.  
    7. QVariantMap data;
    8. data.insert("name", "Oranges");
    9.  
    10. QJsonDocument jsonData = QJsonDocument::fromVariant(data);
    11. m_reply = m_mgr.put(m_request, jsonData.toJson(QJsonDocument::Indented));
    12. connect(m_reply, &QNetworkReply::finished, m_reply, &QNetworkReply::deleteLater);
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    Please help me why it delete the data instead of an update?

    I found the solution,
    Setting header solved my issue,
    Qt Code:
    1. m_request.setHeader( QNetworkRequest::ContentTypeHeader, "application/json" );
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 
    Technically I don't understand why its deleting data if I didn't set header.
    Can someone explain to me this or does it mandatory to use header?

    Thanks

    How should we know what your 'server' does at all?

    Since this is not C++/Qt I can't help debugging the server.
