To utilize CURL POST with a payload in JSON format, follow these steps:

  1. Open a terminal or command prompt window on your computer.
  2. Enter the following command to perform a POST request using CURL and specify the endpoint URL:
curl -X POST "https://example.com/api/endpoint" \
  1. Then, set the Content-Type header to "application/json" using the following command:
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  1. Next, add the JSON payload to the request using the -d flag followed by the payload:
-d '{"key1":"value1", "key2":"value2"}'

Replace "key1" and "key2" with the actual keys in your JSON payload, and "value1" and "value2" with the corresponding values.

The complete CURL POST request with a JSON payload should look something like this:

curl -X POST "https://example.com/api/endpoint" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"key1":"value1", "key2":"value2"}'

After executing this command, the server should respond with the appropriate status code and message, indicating that the POST request was successful or not.
