How do I send a POST request using JavaScript?
To make an HTTP POST request from a web browser, JavaScript offers two primary methods: the promise-driven fetch() API and the callback-driven XMLHttpRequest object. To send POST requests from Node.js, you can use the native "http" module. To make a POST request with JavaScript Fetch API, you must indicate the HTTP POST method name with the "method" parameter and the POST payload in the "body" parameter. Extra HTTP request headers can be set with the "headers" parameter. In this JavaScript POST request example, we send a POST request to the ReqBin echo URL using the fetch() method. Below are additional examples of sending JavaScript POST requests with XMLHttpRequest object. Click "Execute" to make a JavaScript POST request online and see the result.

How to send Bearer Token with JavaScript Fetch API?
To send a Bearer Token in an Authorization header to a server using the JavaScript Fetch API, you must pass the "Authorization: bearer {token}" HTTP header to the fetch() method using the "headers" parameter. Bearer Token is an encrypted string returned by the server and stored on the user's computer that authenticates the user to access protected resources on the server. You must pass a Bearer Token to the fetch() method for every request you make to a protected resource. In this JavaScript Fetch API Bearer Token example, we send a request with an Authorization header to the ReqBin echo URL using the fetch() method. Click Execute to run the JavaScript Fetch API Bearer Token Authorization Header example online and see the result.

How to make a GET request using JavaScript?
To make a GET request with JavaScript, call the fetch() method and provide the target URL. The fetch() uses GET by default if no HTTP method is passed. To send additional HTTP headers to the server with your JavaScript GET request, pass them with "headers" parameters. If you want to include credentials in your GET request, set credentials: "include". For older browsers, you can use the XMLHttpRequest object to make HTTP requests. In this JavaScript GET Request example, we send a request to the ReqBin echo URL using the fetch() method with a custom HTTP header. Below are additional examples of JavaScript GET requests with detailed descriptions. Click "Execute" to run the JavaScript GET Request online and see the result.
