;  This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
;  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

$oReq = ObjCreate("Chilkat.HttpRequest")
$oHttp = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Http")

;  If any custom headers need to be included with the POST, add them
;  by calling SetRequestHeader

;  Note: An application should never explicitly set the Content-Length header.
;  The Content-Length is automatically computed and added by Chilkat.

;  Here are some examples of custom headers.  

;  Perhaps your particular app needs some sort of custom-computed Authorization header...
$oHttp.SetRequestHeader "Authorization","my-custom-computed-auth-value"

;  Another custom header for some hypothetical app:
$oHttp.SetRequestHeader "X-Pass-Timestamp","my-custom-computed-timestamp-value"

;  The following "Accept" header may be set, but it really isn't necessary:
$oHttp.SetRequestHeader "Accept","application/json"

Local $sJsonText = "{ some JSON text ... }"

;  To use SSL/TLS, simply use "https://" in the URL.
