How can I send data using POST method?

You can use send data using POST method with jQuery or js or any standard form.

Please check a jQuery POST call example here.

https://guide.freecodecamp.org/jquery/jquery-ajax-post-method/

 
<script>
// Attach a submit handler to the form
$( "#userForm" ).submit(function( event ) {
 
  // Stop form from submitting normally
  event.preventDefault();
 
  // Get some values from elements on the page:
  var $form = $( this ),
    user_id = $form.find( "input[name='user_id']" ).val(),
    url = "https://www.domain.com/api/user/get_avatar/?user_id="+user_id+"&type=thumb";

 
  // Send the data using post
  var posting = $.post( url, { s: term } );
 
  //Ajax Function to send a get request
  $.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: url,
    dataType:"jsonp"
    success: function(response){
        //if request if made successfully then the response represent the data

        $( "#result" ).empty().append( response );
    }
  });
  
});
</script>

You can also use POSTMAN to send test REST API calls https://www.getpostman.com/downloads/

or you can also use Advanced REST Client Extension for test api calls https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/advanced-rest-client/

I was (and I’m still) trying with Postman but always I’m getting this error: “You must include ‘username’ var in your request. “; this is happening when I try to test the “register” method. Also I’m sending the “insecure” parameter via GET because I’m testing in a local environment, I don’t know if it affects what I send with POST
