// Note: The WaTrend online documentation indicate a POST should be used.
// However, it seems you might actually need to send a GET request.
// It is unclear.  
// If a GET is neeed, you would just send to the URL w/ query params like this:
Chilkat.StringBuilder sbUrl = new Chilkat.StringBuilder();
sbUrl.Append("https://app.watrend.com/api/send.php?");
sbUrl.Append(req.GetUrlEncodedParams());
string responseBodyStr = http.QuickGetStr(sbUrl.GetAsString());
// The responseBodyStr contains the JSON response from the server..

// If a POST is needed, then it is sent like this:
Chilkat.HttpResponse resp = http.PostUrlEncoded("https://app.watrend.com/api/send.php",req);
if (http.LastMethodSuccess == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(http.LastErrorText);
    return;

    Debug.WriteLine("Response Header:");
    Debug.WriteLine(resp.Header);
    Debug.WriteLine("Failed.");

    return;
}

Debug.WriteLine(resp.BodyStr);

// Both success and failed responses use 200 status code.

// A success response contains this JSON in the response body:
// {"status":"success", ... }

// A failed response will contain something like this:
// {"status":"error","message":"License Invalidated"}
