Hi,
I’m trying to do a few things here. I looked at some documentation and watched a few videos but am still a bit confused.

  1. Send GET requests. When sending a GET request, I am using Basic Authorization. In Headers, I can add the content type. why would I not be able to add anything in the body for form data?

Thank you

@windnsea26 Does your ‘GET’ request, needs a body to be sent?
Are you sure about that?

If yes then here’s the github ticket: https://github.com/postmanlabs/postman-app-support/issues/131

Also,
I think you might be making a POST request since form-data is generally submitted through a POST request.
You can just cross check that.
