How can I add raw data body to an axios request?

You can use the below for passing the raw text.

axios.post(
        baseUrl + 'applications/' + appName + '/dataexport/plantypes' + plan, 
        body, 
        {
            headers: { 
                'Authorization': 'Basic xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
                'Content-Type' : 'text/plain' 
            }
        }
).then(response => {
    this.setState({data:response.data});
    console.log(this.state.data);
});

Just have your raw text within body or pass it directly within quotes as 'raw text to be sent' in place of body.

The signature of the axios post is axios.post(url[, data[, config]]), so the data is where you pass your request body.

You can use postman to generate code. Look at this image. Follow step1 and step 2.

If your endpoint just accepts data that have been sent with Body (in postman), You should send FormData.

var formdata = new FormData();
//add three variable to form
formdata.append("imdbid", "1234");
formdata.append("token", "d48a3c54948b4c4edd9207151ff1c7a3");
formdata.append("rate", "4");
      
let res = await axios.post("/api/save_rate", dataform);

How about using direct axios API?

axios({
  method: 'post',
  url: baseUrl + 'applications/' + appName + '/dataexport/plantypes' + plan,
  headers: {}, 
  data: {
    foo: 'bar', // This is the body part
  }
});
