AFNetworking Post Request

Question

I'm a newbie in obj-c and have been using asihttp for some of my projects. When doing a post request in asihttp its done this way.

    ASIFormDataRequest *request = [ASIFormDataRequest requestWithURL:url];
    [request setPostValue:height forKey:@"user[height]"];
    [request setPostValue:weight forKey:@"user[weight]"];
    [request setDelegate:self];
    [request startAsynchronous];

How would go about doing this is AFNetworking with a code example ?
I already got the get Json getrequest working in AFNetworking but this post request is giving me some problems. Thanks for help in advance.

// For Image with parameter /// AFMultipartFormData

NSDictionary *dictParam =@{@"user_id":strGlobalUserId,@"name":[dictParameter objectForKey:@"Name"],@"contact":[dictParameter objectForKey:@"Contact Number"]};

AFHTTPSessionManager *manager = [[AFHTTPSessionManager alloc] initWithBaseURL:[NSURL URLWithString:webServiceUrl]];
[manager.requestSerializer setValue:strGlobalLoginToken forHTTPHeaderField:@"Authorization"];
manager.responseSerializer.acceptableContentTypes = [NSSet setWithObjects:@"application/json", @"text/json", @"text/javascript",@"text/html",@"text/plain",@"application/rss+xml", nil];
[manager POST:@"update_profile" parameters:dictParam constructingBodyWithBlock:^(id<AFMultipartFormData>  _Nonnull formData) {
    if (Imagedata.length>0) {
        [formData appendPartWithFileData:Imagedata name:@"profile_pic" fileName:@"photo.jpg" mimeType:@"image/jpeg"];
    }
} progress:nil
      success:^(NSURLSessionDataTask * _Nonnull task, id  _Nullable responseObject)
 {
     NSLog(@"update_profile %@", responseObject);

     if ([[[[responseObject objectForKey:@"response"] objectAtIndex:0] objectForKey:@"status"] isEqualToString:@"true"])
     {
         [self presentViewController:[global SimpleAlertviewcontroller:@"" Body:[[[responseObject objectForKey:@"response"] objectAtIndex:0] objectForKey:@"response_msg"] handler:^(UIAlertAction *action) {
             [self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];

         }] animated:YES completion:nil];


     }
     else
     {
         [self presentViewController:[global SimpleAlertviewcontroller:@"" Body:[[[responseObject objectForKey:@"response"] objectAtIndex:0] objectForKey:@"response_msg"] handler:^(UIAlertAction *action) {
         }] animated:YES completion:nil];

     }
     [SVProgressHUD dismiss];

 } failure:^(NSURLSessionDataTask  *_Nullable task, NSError  *_Nonnull error)
 {
     [SVProgressHUD dismiss];
 }];

Using AFNetworking 3.0, you should write:

NSString *strURL = @"https://exampleWeb.com/webserviceOBJ";
NSURL * urlStr = [NSURL URLWithString:strURL];

NSDictionary *dictParameters = @{@"user[height]": height,@"user[weight]": weight};

AFHTTPSessionManager * manager = [AFHTTPSessionManager manager];


[manager GET:url.absoluteString parameters:dictParameters success:^(NSURLSessionTask *task, id responseObject) {
    NSLog(@"PLIST: %@", responseObject);

} failure:^(NSURLSessionTask *operation, NSError *error) {
    NSLog(@"Error: %@", error);

}];
