If you have an object, you can easily create a FormData object and append the names and values from that object to formData.

You haven't posted any code, so it's a general example;

var form_data = new FormData();

for ( var key in item ) {
    form_data.append(key, item[key]);
}

$.ajax({
    url         : 'http://example.com/upload.php',
    data        : form_data,
    processData : false,
    contentType : false,
    type: 'POST'
}).done(function(data){
    // do stuff
});

There are more examples in the documentation on MDN


With ES6 and a more functional programming approach @adeneo's answer could looks like this:

function getFormData(object) {
    const formData = new FormData();
    Object.keys(object).forEach(key => formData.append(key, object[key]));
    return formData;
}

And alternatively using .reduce() and arrow-functions:

const getFormData = object => Object.keys(object).reduce((formData, key) => {
    formData.append(key, object[key]);
    return formData;
}, new FormData());

This function adds all data from object to FormData

ES6 version from @developer033:

function buildFormData(formData, data, parentKey) {
  if (data && typeof data === 'object' && !(data instanceof Date) && !(data instanceof File)) {
    Object.keys(data).forEach(key => {
      buildFormData(formData, data[key], parentKey ? `${parentKey}[${key}]` : key);
    });
  } else {
    const value = data == null ? '' : data;

    formData.append(parentKey, value);
  }
}

function jsonToFormData(data) {
  const formData = new FormData();
  
  buildFormData(formData, data);
  
  return formData;
}

const my_data = {
  num: 1,
  falseBool: false,
  trueBool: true,
  empty: '',
  und: undefined,
  nullable: null,
  date: new Date(),
  name: 'str',
  another_object: {
    name: 'my_name',
    value: 'whatever'
  },
  array: [
    {
      key1: {
        name: 'key1'
      }
    }
  ]
};

jsonToFormData(my_data)

jQuery version:

function appendFormdata(FormData, data, name){
    name = name || '';
    if (typeof data === 'object'){
        $.each(data, function(index, value){
            if (name == ''){
                appendFormdata(FormData, value, index);
            } else {
                appendFormdata(FormData, value, name + '['+index+']');
            }
        })
    } else {
        FormData.append(name, data);
    }
}


var formData = new FormData(),
    your_object = {
        name: 'test object',
        another_object: {
            name: 'and other objects',
            value: 'whatever'
        }
    };
appendFormdata(formData, your_object); 

Try JSON.stringify function as below

var postData = JSON.stringify(item);
var formData = new FormData();
formData.append("postData",postData );
