flutter response always same

I was trying to get a response from api(i made this with node js and mongo db)

When I check the api with postman it gives me random outputs for different emails

Here for this email it give me correct output in postman

enter image description here

The problem is when I call this api in flutter it always gives me "new user" for every email I try

This is the code I used in flutter

class FbLoginService {
  static Future<bool> FbAuth(body) async {
    final stest = {"email": "[email protected]"};
    final response = await http.post(
      'http://example.com/api/user/loginwithfb',
      body: stest
    );

    final data = response.body;
    print(data);

    // final temp = jsonEncode(data);

    // Map<String, dynamic> user = jsonDecode(data);
    // print(user['loginstatus']);

    // if (user['loginstatus'] == 'newuser') {
    //   return true;
    // } else {
    //   return false;
    // }
    return true;  
  }
}

This always gives me this out put

I found that postman send this request with Content-Type':'application/json' header

So adding that header to my code solved the problem and then it worked like a charm

headers = {'Content-Type':'application/json'}
final response = await http.post(
      'http://example.com/api/user/loginwithfb',
      body: stest,
      headers:headers
    );

In Postman you are sending a string as the body that looks like JSON.

in Dart you are passing a Map<String, String> as body, so the client will url form encode that.

To make your Dart code behave the same as Postman change:

  body: stest,

to:

  body: json.encode(stest),
