What are common issues when receiving data in PHP using PUT requests?

Common issues when receiving data in PHP using PUT requests include not properly reading the raw input data or not setting the correct content type. To solve this, you can use the php://input stream to read the raw data and set the correct content type header before processing the input. 

// Read raw input data from PUT request
$input_data = file_get_contents('php://input');

// Set content type header
header("Content-Type: application/json");

// Process the input data
$data = json_decode($input_data, true);

// Example of processing the input data
if(isset($data['name'])) {
    echo "Received name: " . $data['name'];
} else {
    echo "No name received";
}
