This seems to be a wide problem and i found no answer elsewhere:

I have a User with some settings, the API URL (found in the AdminPanel) is: POST /api/auth/localand it is a public route.
The login works fine.

Now i want to update some user settings, via this API: PUT /api/users/:id

I use ThunderClient in VSC with this fetch:

let headersList = {
 "Accept": "application/json",
 "Authorization": "Bearer eyJhbGciOi...",
 "Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
}

let bodyContent = "bio=test";
[details="Summary"]
This text will be hidden
[/details]


let response = await fetch("http://127.0.0.1:1337/api/users/1", { 
  method: "PUT",
  body: bodyContent,
  headers: headersList
});

It works, i updated the user setting.

I try the same in SvelteKit inside a api.jsonly accessible by the server:

	opts.headers['accept'] = 'application/json'
	opts.headers['Content-Type'] = 'application/json; charset=UTF-8' 
	opts.body = JSON.stringify(data.user)
	opts.headers['Authorization'] = `Bearer ${token}`
 
    const res = await fetch(url, opts)

if i log the request, it looks like this:

  method: 'PUT',
  headers: {
    accept: 'application/json',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json; charset=UTF-8',
    Authorization: 'Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5...'
  },
  body: '{"username":"Peter","email":"peter@peter.de","password":"","image":"none","bio":"test"}'

This throws an error: status 400 and i could not find out why?

This is the full error output:

      'keep-alive' => 'timeout=5'
    },

  }
