Just like using req.query we can do req.body to get our data. This challenge is very similar to "Get Query Parameter Input from the Client."
|

|
In order to get data from a post request a general format is:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```javascript
|
||
|
|
app.post(PATH, function(req, res) {
|
||
|
|
// Handle the data in the request
|
||
|
|
});
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
