Posting parameters and array in header in CURL using PHP

Question

i am facing an issue i just need to send an array in header and some parameters in body but when i add

curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Token:'.$token));

this line sends token but parameters array get empty but when i just remove the line, parameters successfully send but token is missing

here is the code have look:

      $data = array(

        'name' => $_POST['name'],
        'city' => $_POST['city'],
        'mobileNo' => $_POST['mobileNo'],
      );

      $params = http_build_query($data);
      $curl = curl_init('URL');
      curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
      curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, true);
      curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $params);
      curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, 
      array('Token:'.$token));
      $result = curl_exec($curl);

It is because you overwrite headers and because of that missing content type header. You must add that header to your headers array:

curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,array(
'Token: '.$token,
'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
'Content-Length: '.strlen($params)
));

edit: I've updated post to the working solution

I have added the 'Content-Type: multipart/form-data' in my code but still parameters are empty

Did you remove line I've put in PS section?

Ok, one more try: bring back line I told to remove, set Content-type to application/x-www-form-urlencoded and add another header: 'Content-Length: '.strlen($params)
