Angular Proxy works for GET request but fails POST request

Question

I made a proxy for my requests on my angular app, and I got my GET request to properly redirect to

http://localhost:3000/api/users

but my POST request still goes to

http://localhost:4200/api/users

This is my proxy code

{
  "/api": {
    "target": "http://localhost:3000",
    "secure": false,
    "logLevel": "debug"
  }
}

Why does one fail when they're making requests to the same route?

add / at the last of url i mean "target": "https://localhost:3000/" — Argus Malware, Nov 09 '17 at 14:54
why don't you define it in envornment file https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45525227/different-proxy-config-based-on-environment-in-angular-2-cli — Argus Malware, Nov 09 '17 at 15:03
@Argus when I try that I get a " No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present" error — Joseph hooper, Nov 09 '17 at 15:19
its a cors error it means you are making cross domain request so for solution in backend side where your api is called you can make response header set like Access-Control-Allow-Origin: your site url from which you are making request — Argus Malware, Nov 09 '17 at 15:22
@Argus sure, but where would I add this? I only have an api.js file for my server calls. — Joseph hooper, Nov 09 '17 at 15:31

The problem is with the POST and not the GET because the POST has a body. The body is redirected to the target.

If you pass the body as it is it won't work, you need to set the body as

JSON.stringify(body)
