how long is this going to take? we’ve changed over to post instead of get for the dag_get endpoint and running into issues…

This is the POST we are making:

https://ipfs.infura.io:5001/api/v0/dag/get?arg=QmVYQaf5BP3y8Myr9m4z4FCZYx2v8NJmSHGzm2a2gqig9d&output-codec=dag-json

what are we doing wrong?

On Our side, the image is coming but in some other format … we are using “post” it’s working well on postman

but the data returned in some other format …

But on react native (mobile app) the data returned is empty

Please, help

yes, but on postman and on my code it’s not-working, can you check it on your side

I’m not too familiar with postman, but I did get what looks to be the same result as you (i.e. not the image). What did it show before? Did you try with cirl cmd?
