JIRA Webhook sends no data

Question

I've created a webhook in my OnDemand JIRA instance. It is setup to send all issue events from a specific project to my specified url.

The webhook is triggered as expected, and the request is recieved by my URL and the corresponding function.

However, the request contains no POST data and only sends my JIRA user_key and user_id in the GET query string.

I have NOT ticked the box to exclude details in the webhook POST setup.

Any ideas?

Having the same problem, how to resolve it ?

In my case the issue was PHP, not JIRA. The $_POST variable was not populated with the data that JIRA sent. The resolution, in PHP, is to use the php://input stream:

<?php
//...
$postdata = file_get_contents("php://input");
//...
?>

Did this get resolved? I'm having exactly the same problem with my standalone JIRA v6.3.15
