I am using postman tool for testing. If I send data using headers with key value it goes like body. How to stop this to send data with headers too.
I want if data will send from body then only it should work. If i send it from headers it should prompt me error of cant send data using headers.
Someone tells me about headers_sent function to overcome this issue. But im unable to implement it. please help me this the same.

You have to select body/raw/JSON (application/json).
Hope it works for you.
