Please add the JSON you are using
{"body": {"name":"[your-name]", "email":"[your-email]", "subject":"[your-subject]", "your-message":"[your-message]"}}
I know the fields are already contained within the body, but my api expects.
},
"body": {
"body": {
Removing the additional “body” from the JSON template I am using also causes the issue to persist.
In my attempts to fix it, I did attempt using nl2br, that allowed the POST to be sent to my api but was invalid JSON.
I see no problem with the code you added
please send me your contact details here:

I will need your ftp details in order to check what is wrong
Sorry about the delay, I’ve been ill for a while.
As you can imagine I’d like to avoid handing out access to my server unless absolutely necessary, sorry.
Can you confirm that the following use cases work in your own environment?
1 – Adding new lines to your message in the form, does the API sanitize these?
2 – Single quotes/double quotation marks – a combination of these tends to cause issues if within the message body.
(I just want to know if it’s my slightly weird JSON template causing issues :/ )
I added something like this to the string in the parse_json function to fix line breaks
trim( preg_replace( '/(\r\n)|\n|\r/', '\\n', $string))
Which worked and allowed large datasets to be sent & fixed line breaks.
So I reinstalled everything to get rid of my changes and switched to using a more normal template.
I can confirm that multiple line breaks in the message means the message do not get sent by the API.
Also,
A message containing this: “” Did I just break you? “”
would lead the API to send: “message”: “\”\” Did I just break you? \”\” ”
CF7 does clean up the message before emailing it, is it not possible to retrieve the submission after it’s been formatted?
You can manipulate the data that is being sent using this filter
There you can do whatever you like with the request
For example:
add_filter( ‘qs_cf7_api_get_args’ , ‘change_the_json_structure’ );
function change_the_json_structure( $args ){
$json = $args[‘body’];
$json = stripslashes( $json );
$args[‘body’] = $json; //this will probably break the json because in your example the json is escaped correctly
//dont forget to return the args
return $args;
}
