Fetch: POST requests

Fetch also allows to use any other HTTP method in your request: POST, PUT, DELETE or OPTIONS.

Specify the method in the method property of the request, and pass additional parameters in the header and in the request body:

Example of a POST request:

const options = {
  method: 'post',
  headers: {
    'Content-type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8'
  },
  body: 'name=Flavio&test=1'
}

fetch(url, options).catch(err => {
  console.error('Request failed', err)
})
