JSON Serialised Parameters

Some API calls require you to pass in a body parameter whose value is a JSON Serialised string of an object. However, because we are using OAuth as our authentication process, it will be content-type of application/x-www-form-urlencoded.

Here we are going to use an example to demonstrate how to populate those parameters. We will be using the add asset to a collection call for that.

For this purpose, all the required parameters are given:

Collection's id: C11F654D-2245-4D08-80F5049F98E55F66
Ids of assets to be added:
- D4AC0B41-141B-47D2-98B4FECDA8894CB2
- 10F8D69E-51B8-4C7D-95B74111C07BBA1F

Based on that information, we have to create a JSON representation of the given list of asset ids in order to populate the data parameter of the API request. Here is the corresponding example call:

HTTP Parameter	Value
Http Method	POST
URL	`https://byndair.getbynder.com/api/v4/collections/C11F654D-2245-4D08-80F5049F98E55F66/media/`
Body load type	`application/x-www-form-urlencoded` `data:["D4AC0B41-141B-47D2-98B4FECDA8894CB2","10F8D69E-51B8-4C7D-95B74111C07BBA1F"]`

As you can see, the body is using application/x-www-form-urlencoded, in order to send the request body parameters. Additionally, the value of the required body parameter data contains the JSON representation of a list of unique identifiers, that is: ["D4AC0B41-141B-47D2-98B4FECDA8894CB2","10F8D69E-51B8-4C7D-95B74111C07BBA1F"].
