  To answer my own question, yes.

  To change the content-type in the AJAX plugin, you merely need to edit the AJAX runtime.js file and replace application/x-www-form-urlencoded with the content you need (in my case application/json).

  I'd like to see this as well. The service I want to post to is expecting application/json content.

  Hmm, the target of my AJAX post is expecting application/json as its content-type.

  It looks like the AJAX post content type in C2 uses application/x-www-form-urlencoded.

  Is this correct? If so, anyway to change the content-type for Post action in the AJAX object?

  Ah, thank you very much. This explains a lot.

  Right, this assumes I was entering the data in the data field itself (which expects a string). The first set of quotes is a requirement of the JSON data format.

  Hello,

  I'm attempting to use the AJAX object to post JSON data.

  The write-up for the AJAX object mentions that the URLEncode system expression should be used for urlencoded content, but is there a similar expression for JSON content?

  If not, any reason manually formatting the data wouldn't work? I understand the double quotes requirement. For example, in the data field:

  {"title":"Hello back at you"}

  would need to be:

  {""title"":""Hello back at you""}

  Thanks for any insights.
