Why isn't salt-api working with this configuration?

I'm trying to set up a really basic salt-api configuration just to test it out. I'm using salt-master and salt-minion 2016.3.0 Boron on Ubuntu 14.04

I'm using this tutorial, and my configuration is below.

/srv/salt/top.sls

base:
  '*':
      - reactor

/etc/salt/master.d/reactor.conf

reactor:
  - 'salt/netapi/hook/restart':
    - /srv/reactor/test.sls

/srv/reactor/test.sls

{% set postdata = data.get('post', {}) %}

{% if postdata.secretkey == "replacethiswithsomethingbetter"  %}
test:
  local.cmd.run:
    - tgt: '{{ postdata.tgt }}'
    -arg:
      - touch /home/username/test.txt
{% endif %}

I have restarted the master, and if I run salt '*' state.sls reactor then everything in the state works fine. All it does is touch /home/username/test.txt, and that file is created when I run the state.

The command I'm running to use the API is

curl -H "Accept: application/json" -d tgt='*' -d secretkey="replacethiswithsomethingbetter" -k https://192.168.1.1:8080/hook/services/restart

and that command returns {"success": true}

Then I check on the minion, and the file hasn't been created.

The output of salt-run state.event pretty=True is 

salt/netapi/hook/services/restart   {
    "_stamp": "2016-06-29T19:30:04.193832", 
    "body": "", 
    "headers": {
        "Accept": "application/json", 
        "Content-Length": "46", 
        "Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded", 
        "Host": "192.168.1.1:8080", 
        "Remote-Addr": "192.168.1.3", 
        "User-Agent": "curl/7.35.0"
    }, 
    "post": {
        "secretkey": "replacethiswithsomethingbetter", 
        "tgt": "*"
    }
}

I did go through all of the self signed cert steps. I'm not 100% sure why I need those, but it's done, and they are listed in the rest_cherrypy configs.

Any help is appreciated.

EDIT 1

I edited the reactor stuff, because there's an example of using cmd.run, or local.cmd.run located int he salt docs here

It's still returning true, and not working.

URL is wrong:

https://192.168.1.1:8080/hook/services/restart

should change to :

https://192.168.1.1:8080/hook/restart

because what you defined is :

reactor:
  - 'salt/netapi/hook/restart':
    - /srv/reactor/test.sls

You can view debug log by run salt-master as salt-master -l debug .
