Vistassending ajax get request with content type :application/xml is still giving me json response
I've been constructing this ajax request
<script>
$.ajax({
url:"https://api.asd.com/v1/book?limit_bids=450&limit=20",
type:"GET",
data:{
},
contentType:"application/xml",
success: function (response) {
console.log(headers),
console.log(response)
}
});
</script>
i was expecting it to return a xml based response or text/html based 400 bad request [which it should]
but instead i got JSON response
but triggering the same request in burp or postman is giving me the response which i wanted
the thing is content-lenfth is required to get that exact response
but having content-length header is not being accepted in ajax request
so im assuming content-length will autoamtically be added by ajax while sending the data in requet
data:{
"asd"
},
is giving me error
data:{
"asd":"asd"
}
is still giving me a json response
so how exactly i need to construct the request?
so that i can get the response i wanted from that image not just ajax but any other methods like
jquery or XMLHttpRequest

Ajax GET requests do not have body content so they would not have content lengths or content types.
If you want to tell the api that you want an xml response you have to set the dataType field in $.ajax. This of course has to be supported by the API, just saying you want xml doesn't guarantee you will get it.
$.ajax({
url:"https://api.asd.com/v1/book?limit_bids=450&limit=20",
type:"GET",
dataType:"xml",
success: function (response) {
console.log(response);
}
});
