Hi Eder, sorry no-one has come back with a quick solution for you ... I guess we don't have too many Angular JS experts reading.
To confirm, is this Angular JS (or v1.x) rather than Angular (V2+) ? If you could upload to github a simple example with Angular JS code that demonstrates the issue, I'll see if I can take a look. Also, done it works with Postman, perhaps you could use Fiddler or just the Chrome/Firefox debugging tools to see what is being sent over the wire? It's also very easy to debug servers use, so you could put a breakpoint in the appropriate XxxServerSideResource class to see what's being received in the Postman Vs Angular cases.
