Answer 1

This part of the API is not very well documented, but after we found this question we were finally able to find a way to solve the problem: The key is to have all the properties you want to send concatenated into a string divided by & characters and send them as plain text via POST.

If you want to try it out in Postman:

1) enter the properties as url parameters

2) copy the string from the url

3) and paste it in the request body, setting the type to plain text.
