There is an in-built middleware present in Express which can handle json/form data in an application.

We just have to write a simple line of code
For JSON data -
<pre><code>app.use(express.json())

<pre><code>app.use(express.urlencoded())

This will add a property body to request object, which contains all the data in the form of key-value pairs.

<pre><code>app.get('/',(request,response)=&gt;{
 console.log(request.body);

**There is an in-built middleware present in Express which can handle json/form data in an application.** 


## How to do it?

We just have to write a simple line of code

**For JSON data -**

```
app.use(express.json())
``` 

**For Form data**

```
app.use(express.urlencoded())
``` 

## What will happen after adding this ?

This will add a property **body** to request object, which contains all the data in the form of key-value pairs.


## How to access data?

```
app.get('/',(request,response)=>{
   console.log(request.body);
})
``` 

**This will give all the data whether it is JSON or Form data.**

*Happy Coding*
