How i can Load POST URLRequest with parameter in WKWebView?

Question

Sorry For this my English is weak I try many types of a solution but not working in Xcode 11.2.1 and swift 5

I try this

var urlRequest = URLRequest(url: URL(string: "https://xxxxxx/login")!)  
      urlRequest.httpMethod = "POST"  
     let params = [  
                            "username":   SessionManager.shared.username!,  
                            "password":  SessionManager.shared.password!,  
                            "vhost": "standard"  
      ]  
      let postString = self.getPostString(params: params)  
        urlRequest.httpBody = postString.data(using: .utf8)  
       webView.load(urlRequest)  


...  
//helper method to build url form request  
func getPostString(params:[String:String]) -> String  
    {  
        var data = [String]()  
        for(key, value) in params  
        {  
            data.append(key + "=\(value)")  

        }  
        return data.map { String($0) }.joined(separator: "&")  
    }

and this

Post Request with Parameter

And also try to add below lines in my code

request.addValue("application/json", forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")
request.addValue("application/json", forHTTPHeaderField: "Accept")

The request body uses the same format as the query string:

parameter=value&also=another

Therefore the content type of your request is of type application/x-www-form-urlencoded :

let postString = self.getPostString(params: params)  

urlRequest.addValue("application/x-www-form-urlencoded", forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")
urlRequest.httpMethod = "POST"
urlRequest.httpBody = postString.data(using: .utf8)  

webView.load(urlRequest)

Try this, we will initiate a POST request using URLSession convert the data returned by the server to String and instead of loading the url we will use loadHTMLString which will:

Set the webpage contents and base URL.

and the content is our converted string::-

var request = URLRequest(url: URL(string: "http://www.yourWebsite")!)
    request.httpMethod = "POST"
    let params = "Your Parameters"
    request.httpBody = params.data(using: .utf8)

    let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: request) { (data : Data?, response : URLResponse?, error : Error?) in
            if data != nil {
                if let returnString = String(data: data!, encoding: .utf8) {
                    self.webView.loadHTMLString(returnString, baseURL: URL(string: "http://www.yourWebsite.com")!)
                }
            }
    }
    task.resume()

I tried this but not working same blank page coming @Sidharth Khanna — Nikunj, Mar 05 '20 at 06:36
Do you get any errors? Can you share what is expected response from server on that end point. — Asad Jamil, Mar 05 '20 at 07:05
