' This example assumes the Chilkat HTTP API to have been previously unlocked.
' See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

' Build the POST request to get a member's data.
Dim req As New Chilkat.HttpRequest

' If your particular API URL is "https://mydomain.com/wp-content/plugins/membermouse/api/request.php",
' then the Path part of the URL is "/wp-content/plugins/membermouse/api/request.php",
' and the Domain part of the URL is "mydomain.com".
' If "https" is used, then the port is 443 (not 80).

req.HttpVerb = "POST"
' Use the Path part of your API_URL with "?q=/getMember".
' The command, such as /getMember, /createMember, etc. goes in the Path.
' The remainder of the POST arguments are query params that go in the body of the request.
' (Do not put the apikey and apisecret in the Path because the secret will be exposed.
' You want the confidential information to be in the body of the request.)
req.Path = "/wp-content/plugins/membermouse/api/request.php?q=/getMember"

' Add the query params.
' (Use your particular values in place of "MEMBERMOUSE_...")
