Get data in the POST request body Play Framework

Play 2.4.x. How can we get the data that is send through the body of POST request as key value pairs? I'm sending a post request from the postman plugin, created a key value parit in the body.

How could I get this value from the action function. I tried with request.body() but it could not get the value alone from it..

Is there any way I cloud get the value that is send in the body of post request

Try DynamicForm in play's action method.

play.data.DynamicForm data = play.data.Form.form().bindFromRequest();

String username = data.get("username");
String password = data.get("password");

Update: From Play 2.5 on wards, inject play.data.FormFactory on your controller it allows you to access form. Reference

@Inject play.data.FormFactory formFactory;

play.data.DynamicForm data = formFactory.form().bindFromRequest();
