; Note: Any provider of a REST API, such as the Egyptian government in this case, can make life 
; much easier for developers by providing one or more of the following in the API documentation:
; 
; 1) A sample CURL statement for each API call.
; 2) A Postman collection, or Swagger/OpenAPI specification file.
; 3) A sample of a raw HTTP request and response for each API call.
; 
; The sample CURL statements or raw HTTP request/responses do not need to comprehensively show all 
; possible options.  Providing a sample allows one to quickly make a successful API call.
; It also allows for code generation directly from the CURL, Postman collection, or raw request/response,
; and it tends to answer all questions about the format/structure of a request that, suprisingly,
; remain ambiguous or not obvious in other forms of documentation.

$oReq = ObjCreate("Chilkat.HttpRequest")

; Use your actual client ID and client secret...

; When writing this example, the documentation at https://sdk.invoicing.eta.gov.eg/ereceiptapi/01-authenticate-pos/
; shows us the HTTP verb and path (POST /connect/token), however,
; we don't see the actual domain where the request is to be sent.
; What are the endpoints???
; It took some searching, but we found some endpoints here:  https://sdk.invoicing.eta.gov.eg/faq/
; It's not immediately apparent which endpoint is to be used with a given API call.
; Why not just include the endpoint in the documentation for each REST API call?
; Endpoints are literally the #1 thing that needs to be known.
; They can't just be buried in a FAQ.  They should be up-front and obvious.
; 
; So.. we're guessing the endpoint is likely "https://invoicing.eta.gov.eg/connect/token"
