Read the Manual: XML or JSON Data

Applications employing REST often exchange data in non-URL-encoded post bodies. You can read input data in any format using Http\ServerRequest::input(). By providing a decoding function, you can receive the content in a deserialized format:

// Get JSON encoded data submitted to a PUT/POST action
$jsonData = $this->request->input('json_decode');
