Transform CURL to Http facade laravel - laravel

Question

I have this code :
$httpParams = [
'textData' => $content,
'xmlFile' => new \CurlFile($params['file']->getPathName())
];
$curlHandle = curl_init('http://url.com');
curl_setopt($curlHandle, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);
curl_setopt($curlHandle, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($curlHandle, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $httpParams);
curl_setopt($curlHandle, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$curlResponse = curl_exec($curlHandle);
curl_close($curlHandle);
dump($curlResponse);die();
I have the response in $curlResponse with status = 200
But when I tried with Http from laravel :
$http = Http::asForm();
$httpParams = [
'textData' => $content,
'xmlFile' => new \CurlFile($params['file']->getPathName())
];
$response = $http->send('post', 'http://url.com', $httpParams)->body();
dump($response);
Response is empty : "". The status is 200. Can you help me please, why using Http facade I have empty response ? Thx in advance. Please help me !!!

You can write reusable method inside separate class
public function apiCall($url, $method = "get",$data=[])
{
$htppCall = Http::withHeaders([
'Content-Type' => 'application/json',
])->{$method}($url,$data);
if ($htppCall->status() == 401) {
//error handling
}
return $htppCall->object();
}
Then call like this
$httpParams = [
'textData' => $content,
'xmlFile' => new \CurlFile($params['file']->getPathName())
];
$response=$this->apiCall($url,'post',$httpParams);
dd($response);
Import right facade
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Http;
checking what status code you got
$htppCall->status()
to get data as object
$htppCall->object()
To get data as array
$htppCall->json()
To check client errors
$htppCall->clientError()
to check server errors
$htppCall->serverError()
To Get the body of the response.
$htppCall->body()
