google chrome - Storing a HTTP POST request in a bookmark or something similar as you would with a GET request

Thursday, 9 November 2017

You can store a bookmark with a GET request like this:

http://url.com/service?variable=value

Can you store a POST request in some way in Chrome? Maybe with a plugin? Or maybe in Firefox?

The idea is that I store this in a bookmark and fire it quickly instead of having to fill up a form every time.

The idea is that I store this in a bookmark and fire it quickly instead of having to fill up a form every time.

For this purpose, the following HTML page will do. It should work in most browsers.


    
        getToPost

Save it as C:\getToPost and you can bookmark the following URL:

file:///C:/getToPost?name1=value1&name2=value2#http://url.com/service

You'll be able to use most characters in names or values literally. Encode the following as usual:

#   ->   %23
%   ->   %25
&   ->   %26
=   ->   %3D
