cURL Command

During the development of the chatbot at work, I used the cURL command, which proved to be useful to post data to an API.

Ultimately I ended up using Postman API, but there was a brief period where cURL was needed. Perhaps this was when I was hosting an API endpoint locally for testing purposes, and just wanted to check a response - I can't specifcally remember at this point.

Command which worked:

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d @data.json -N -w "Connect: %{time_connect} TTFB: %{time_starttransfer} Total time: %{time_total} \n" https://rufi2m6pii73et7avctry2s3em0bwrpn.lambda-url.eu-west-2.on.aws/

data.json is a local file of the data to be passed with the POST method, in the same project.
