How do I post JSON to a REST API endpoint?
To post JSON to a REST API endpoint {{using LANG}}, you must send an HTTP POST request to the REST API server and provide JSON data in the body of the {{LANG}} POST message. You must also specify the data type using the Content-Type: application/json request header. In this {{LANG}} REST API POST example, we also send the Accept: application/json request header to tell the REST API server that the {{LANG}} API client expects JSON in response.

How do I send an POST request?
The HTTP POST method sends data to the server to create/update a resource on the server. The POST data is included in the body of the {{LANG}} POST message. The Content-Type request header indicates the data type in the POST body, and the Content-Length request header indicates the data size in the {{LANG}} POST request. In this {{LANG}} POST Request example, we send data to the ReqBin echo URL with Content-Type and Content-Length HTTP headers. Click Send to execute the {{LANG}} POST Request example online and see the results.

How do I post a request using Curl?
To make a POST request with Curl, you can run the Curl command-line tool with the -d or --data command-line option and pass the data as the second argument. Curl will automatically select the HTTP POST method and application/x-www-form-urlencoded content type if the method and content type are not explicitly specified. To post data in the multipart/form-data format, you can use the -F or --form command line option. To send data using another HTTP HTTP method, you use the -X command line option. If you would like to send data to the server via a different HTTP method, you can use the -X command-line option. Click Run to execute Curl POST Request Example online and see results.
