Request For Help In using POST in postman and Angular Controller

Question

I am using Postman for the first time to POST to a server. I get an error a non-descript body is required.

What should I put in the body? I selected JSON and raw.

This is the Angular controller code:

namespace backend.Controllers
{
[Route("api/[controller]")]
[ApiController]
public class QuestionsController : ControllerBase
{
    // POST api/values
    [HttpPost]
    public void Post([FromBody] string value)
    {
    }
}

}

I am following a tutorial. RIght now, any valid value is fine. — James, Sep 21 '18 at 19:39
Just saying, that is not an angular controller. That is a c# class. — Isaac Vidrine, Sep 21 '18 at 20:14

A POST request contains a payload (data which we want to be saved via this POST request). In postman, we need to send that through the request body. Add the JSON/data (in the acceptable signature) to be saved through the request in the request body.

The body is :

"{  \"key1\": \"value1\" }"
