Hey guys I'm trying to send files to Laravel server using ajax for that i need to create form data and send it with the ajax request and in order to prevent illegal invocation i need to set these
processData: false,
contentType: false,
heres my code->
$("#saveChanges").click(function () {
let formData = new FormData();
formData.append("banner", $("input[name='banner']"));
$.ajax({
url: "/save/website/data",
type: "POST",
data: {
pickUpBtnColor: $("input[name='pickUpBtnColor']").val(),
banner: $("input[name='banner']").val(),
logo: $("input[name='logo']").val(),
_token: $('meta[name="csrf"]').attr("content"),
formData: formData,
},
processData: false,
contentType: false,
success: function (data) {
console.log(data);
},
error: function (error) {
console.log(error);
},
});
});
But when i set these my csrf is also ignored and the server responds with "CSRF token mismatch."
Any one has a solution?
The issue is because you need to place all the form field values within a single FormData object and send that in the request.
$("#saveChanges").click(function() {
let formData = new FormData();
formData.append("banner", $("input[name='banner']"));
formData.append('pickUpBtnColor', $("input[name='pickUpBtnColor']").val());
formData.append('banner', $("input[name='banner']").val());
formData.append('logo', $("input[name='logo']").val());
formData.append('_token', $('meta[name="csrf"]').attr("content");
$.ajax({
url: "/save/website/data",
type: "POST",
data: formData,
processData: false,
contentType: false,
success: function(data) {
console.log(data);
},
error: function(error) {
console.log(error);
},
});
});
Note that you could potentially simplify this if your input elements are contained within a form; hook to the submit event of the form element instead of the click of the button, and then call let formData = new FormData(referenceToYourFormHere);. There is no need for the append() calls when using the constructor in this manner.
I do an ajax call but I keep getting this error:
419 (unknown status)
No idea what is causing this I saw on other posts it has to do something with csrf token but I have no form so I dont know how to fix this.
my call:
$('.company-selector li > a').click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var companyId = $(this).data("company-id");
$.ajax({
headers: {
'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')
},
url: '/fetch-company/' + companyId,
dataType : 'json',
type: 'POST',
data: {},
contentType: false,
processData: false,
success:function(response) {
console.log(response);
}
});
});
My route:
Route::post('fetch-company/{companyId}', 'HomeController#fetchCompany');
My controller method
/**
* Fetches a company
*
* #param $companyId
*
* #return array
*/
public function fetchCompany($companyId)
{
$company = Company::where('id', $companyId)->first();
return response()->json($company);
}
The ultimate goal is to display something from the response in a html element.
Use this in the head section:
<meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}">
and get the csrf token in ajax:
$.ajaxSetup({
headers: {
'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')
}
});
Please refer Laravel Documentation csrf_token
Another way to resolve this is to use the _token field in ajax data and set the value of {{csrf_token()}} in blade. Here is a working code that I just tried at my end.
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: '/your_url',
data: { somefield: "Some field value", _token: '{{csrf_token()}}' },
success: function (data) {
console.log(data);
},
error: function (data, textStatus, errorThrown) {
console.log(data);
},
});
It's possible your session domain does not match your app URL and/or the host being used to access the application.
1.) Check your .env file:
SESSION_DOMAIN=example.com
APP_URL=example.com
2.) Check config/session.php
Verify values to make sure they are correct.
This is similar to Kannan's answer. However, this fixes an issue where the token should not be sent to cross-domain sites. This will only set the header if it is a local request.
HTML:
<meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}">
JS:
$.ajaxSetup({
beforeSend: function(xhr, type) {
if (!type.crossDomain) {
xhr.setRequestHeader('X-CSRF-Token', $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content'));
}
},
});
use this in your page
<meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}">
and in your ajax used it in data:
_token: '{!! csrf_token() !!}',
that is:
$.ajax({
url: '/fetch-company/' + companyId,
dataType : 'json',
type: 'POST',
data: {
_token: '{!! csrf_token() !!}',
},
contentType: false,
processData: false,
success:function(response) {
console.log(response);
}
});
Thanks.
in my case i forgot to add csrf_token input to the submitted form.
so i did this
HTML:
<form class="form-material" id="myform">
...
<input type="file" name="l_img" id="l_img">
<input type="hidden" id="_token" value="{{ csrf_token() }}">
..
</form>
JS:
//setting containers
var _token = $('input#_token').val();
var l_img = $('input#l_img').val();
var formData = new FormData();
formData.append("_token", _token);
formData.append("l_img", $('#l_img')[0].files[0]);
if(!l_img) {
//do error if no image uploaded
return false;
}
else
{
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/my_url",
contentType: false,
processData: false,
dataType: "json",
data : formData,
beforeSend: function()
{
//do before send
},
success: function(data)
{
//do success
},
error: function(jqXhr, textStatus, errorThrown) //jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown
{
if( jqXhr.status === "422" ) {
//do error
} else {
//do error
}
}
});
}
return false; //not to post the form physically
If you already done the above suggestions and still having the issue.
Make sure that the env variable:
SESSION_SECURE_COOKIE
Is set to false if you don't have a SSL certificate, like on local.
If you are loading .js from a file you have to set a variable with the csrf_token in your "main" .blade.php file where you are importing the .js and use the variable in your ajax call.
index.blade.php
...
...
<script src="{{ asset('js/anotherfile.js') }}"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var token = '{{ csrf_token() }}';
</script>
anotherfile.js
$.ajax({
url: 'yourUrl',
type: 'POST',
data: {
'_token': token
},
dataType: "json",
beforeSend:function(){
//do stuff
},
success: function(data) {
//do stuff
},
error: function(data) {
//do stuff
},
complete: function(){
//do stuff
}
});
Even though you have a csrf_token, if you are authenticate your controller actions using Laravel Policies you can have 419 response as well. In that case you should add necessary policy functions in your Policy class.
some refs =>
...
<head>
// CSRF for all ajax call
<meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}" />
</head>
...
...
<script>
// CSRF for all ajax call
$.ajaxSetup({ headers: { 'X-CSRF-TOKEN': jQuery('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content') } });
</script>
...
This worked for me:
$.ajaxSetup({
headers: {
'X-CSRF-TOKEN': "{{ csrf_token() }}"
}
});
After this set regular AJAX call. Example:
$.ajax({
type:'POST',
url:'custom_url',
data:{name: "some name", password: "pass", email: "test#test.com"},
success:function(response){
// Log response
console.log(response);
}
});
You have to get the csrf token..
$.ajaxSetup({
headers: {
'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')
}
});
After doing same issue is rise ,Just Add this meta tag< meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}" >
After this also the error arise ,you can check the Ajax error. Then Also check the Ajax error
$.ajax({
url: 'some_unknown_page.html',
success: function (response) {
$('#post').html(response.responseText);
},
error: function (jqXHR, exception) {
var msg = '';
if (jqXHR.status === 0) {
msg = 'Not connect.\n Verify Network.';
} else if (jqXHR.status == 404) {
msg = 'Requested page not found. [404]';
} else if (jqXHR.status == 500) {
msg = 'Internal Server Error [500].';
} else if (exception === 'parsererror') {
msg = 'Requested JSON parse failed.';
} else if (exception === 'timeout') {
msg = 'Time out error.';
} else if (exception === 'abort') {
msg = 'Ajax request aborted.';
} else {
msg = 'Uncaught Error.\n' + jqXHR.responseText;
}
$('#post').html(msg);
},
});
formData = new FormData();
formData.append('_token', "{{csrf_token()}}");
formData.append('file', blobInfo.blob(), blobInfo.filename());
xhr.send(formData);
2019 Laravel Update, Never thought i will post this but for those developers like me using the browser fetch api on Laravel 5.8 and above. You have to pass your token via the headers parameter.
var _token = "{{ csrf_token }}";
fetch("{{url('add/new/comment')}}", {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'X-CSRF-TOKEN': _token,
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
},
body: JSON.stringify(name, email, message, article_id)
}).then(r => {
return r.json();
}).then(results => {}).catch(err => console.log(err));
I had SESSION_SECURE_COOKIE set to true so my dev environment didn't work when logging in, so I added SESSION_SECURE_COOKIE=false
to my dev .env file and all works fine my mistake was changing the session.php file instead of adding the variable to the .env file.
just serialize the form data and get your problem solved.
data: $('#form_id').serialize(),
This error also happens if u forgot to include this, in your ajax submission request ( POST ),
contentType: false,
processData: false,
Got this error even though I had already been sending csrf token. Turned out there was no more space left on server.
This works great for those cases you don't require a form.
use this in header:
<meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}">
and this in your JavaScript code:
$.ajaxSetup({
headers: {
'X-CSRF-TOKEN': '<?php echo csrf_token() ?>'
}
});
A simple way to fixe a 419 unknown status on your console is to put this script inside in your FORM. {{ csrf_field() }}
in the name of the universe programmer
i send ajax with pure js and i understand when i dont set this method of ajax in pure js
<< xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded") >>
i recive this error 419.
the full method of pure ajax is :
let token = document.querySelector('meta[name="csrf-token"]').content;
let xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
// Open the connection
xhr.open("POST", "/seller/dashboard/get-restaurants");
// you have to set this line in the code (if you dont set you recive error 419):
xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
//* Set up a handler for when the task for the request is complete
xhr.onload = function () {
};
// Send the data.
xhr.send(`_token=${token}`);
When I use a POST method with the following ajax request, it throws a "Method not allowed" error. If I use the form POST without using ajax, it goes to the proper method.
In Router.php:
$this->post('TestPost','DashboardController#TestPostMethod');
In View, the ajax request is:
$.ajax(
{
type: "POST",
url: 'TestPost',
data: "{}",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
cache: false,
success: function (data) {
alert('hid post');
SetHotandWorstData(data,'hotquantity');
},
error: function (msg) {
alert('error');
alert(msg.responseText);
}
});
In Controller:
function TestPostMethod(Request $request)
{
$hotworstsalesdata = DB::table('100_INVOICEDETAIL')
->select( '100_INVOICEDETAIL.ITEMCODE','100_INVOICEDETAIL.ITEMNAME',
DB::raw('SUM("100_INVOICEDETAIL"."QTY") as
salesqty'), DB::raw('SUM("100_INVOICEDETAIL"."AMT") as salesamt'))
->groupBy('100_INVOICEDETAIL.ITEMCODE','100_INVOICEDETAIL.ITEMNAME')
->orderBy('salesqty')
->take(10)
->get();
return Datatables::of($hotworstsalesdata)->make(true);
}
you should pass "_token" in POST data. Laravel use token for cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks. use following code in your AJAX request
data: { _token: "{{ csrf_token() }}" }
Updated answer:
I have re-create same scenario on my system with laravel 5.4 and it's working for me.
my route (web.php) code is:
Route::post('/test_post', 'DashboardController#getData');
Javascript code is:
<script type="text/javascript">
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: '{{ url('/') }}/test_post',
data: { _token: "{{ csrf_token() }}" },
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
cache: false,
success: function (data) {
console.log(data);
},
error: function (msg) {
console.log(msg.responseText);
}
});
</script>
DashboardController file is:
public function getData(Request $request) {
print_r($request);
}
Recently I got error with DELETE method ! I fixed by setting csrf token in html header and get in ajax . Hope this can solve your problem ..
<html>
<header>
<meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}" />
In ajax,
$.ajaxSetup({
headers: {
'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')
}
});
Uploading the image file in lumen API using ajax call, it not getting the image in the lumen for processing, the Request object is empty.
Ajax call
var file = $('#img')[0].files[0];
var form_data = new FormData(document.getElementById("myform"));
form_data.append("img", file);
$.ajax({
url: "http://localhost:8000/api/image",
type: "POST",
data: form_data,
enctype: 'multipart/form-data',
processData: false, // tell jQuery not to process the data
contentType: false // tell jQuery not to set contentType
})
.done(function (data) {
console.log(data);
});
Route
$api->post('/image', 'ImagesController#addImage');
Controller
public function addImage(Request $request) {
return $request; // returns empty object
}
Request payload
Response
In your controller add this line
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
Do not use the Request facade as Lumen works differently from Laravel.
You can build a JavaScript object this way, this will ensure passing the body to the request.
let form_data = {
'name': $('#name').value(),
'file': $('#img')[0].files[0]
};
$.ajax({
url: "http://localhost:8000/api/image",
type: "POST",
data: form_data,
enctype: 'multipart/form-data',
processData: false, // tell jQuery not to process the data
contentType: false // tell jQuery not to set contentType
})
.done(function (data) {
console.log(data);
});
I have a form set up to upload an image. I was previously using DropZone.js which worked fine and sent the CSRF token along with the ajax call. Everything server side is fine, but when trying to do this without DropZone I am getting token mismatch errors.
This is my AJAX call:
$(document).on('submit', ".hidden-image-upload", function(e){
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
url:'/project/uploadImage',
data:{
data:new FormData($("#upload_form")[0]),
},
dataType:'json',
async:false,
type:'post',
processData: false,
contentType: false,
success:function(response){
console.log(response);
},
});
});
And this is the HTML:
<form method="POST" action="http://localhost/project/create" accept-charset="UTF-8" class="hidden-image-upload">
<input name="_token" type="hidden" value="5lgtt8AgbeF3lprptj8HNXVPceRhoJbqBeErBI1k">
<input class="cover-image-upload-button" name="file" type="file">
</form>
How do I go about sorting out my AJAX call / Laravel to work together?
You can send the token in headers using $.ajax.
$(document).on('submit', ".hidden-image-upload", function(e){
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
url:'/project/uploadImage',
data:{
data:new FormData($("#upload_form")[0]),
},
headers: {
'X-CSRF-Token': $('form.hidden-image-upload [name="_token"]').val()
}
dataType:'json',
async:false,
type:'post',
processData: false,
contentType: false,
success:function(response){
console.log(response);
},
});
});
In the worst case, disable CSRF check in that route, just add the route in the array $except inside app/Http/Middleware/VerifyCsrfToken.php
Try this. You must also pass your CSRF Token along with your FormData:
$(document).on('submit', ".hidden-image-upload", function(e){
e.preventDefault();
var data = new FormData($("#upload_form")[0]);
data.append('_token', $('input[name="token"]').val());
$.ajax({
url:'/project/uploadImage',
data:{
data: data,
},
dataType:'json',
async:false,
type:'post',
processData: false,
contentType: false,
success:function(response){
console.log(response);
},
});
});
