Post request in Alteryx download tool

Hello,

I'm looking to build a post request in Alteryx download tool. The input data should be in JSON format.

This is the API I'm using: https://developer.tomtom.com/batch-search-api/documentation/synchronous-batch

I'd like to send a json as the body for the post request, but I'm not doing it correctly. Please guide me and let me know where I can learn more about how to create post requests in Alteryx.

Currently, I have this as my json. It's just a string inside of a the column "field like this:

field

{
"batchItems": [
{ "query": "/search/lodz.json?limit=10&idxSet=POI,PAD,Str,Xstr,Geo,Addr" },
{
"query": "/search/wroclaw.json?limit=10&idxSet=POI,PAD,Str,Xstr,Geo,Addr"
},
{ "query": "/search/berlin.json?limit=10&idxSet=POI,PAD,Str,Xstr,Geo,Addr" }
]
}

Can you please clarify? I don't understand.

I see my issue was that I didn't fill out the headers section with Name: Content-type Value: application/json. I finally understand, thank you.
