I have a curl code I took from the capital.com website regarding their API but they do not have docs for node.js and I have no clue what curl code is so I do not understand it, Can anyone tell me the js equivalent assuming I am using axios to make the request.
curl -L -X POST 'https://api-capital.backend-capital.com/api/v1/session' \
-H 'X-CAP-API-KEY: evSl********S26P' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
"encryptedPassword": "false",
"identifier": "[email protected]",
"password": "Xxxx9999_"
}'
I tried this below but gave me a error Status 400
const loginHandler = () => {
axios.post("https://api-capital.backend-capital.com/api/v1/session", {
'X-CAP-API-KEY': "tL0xi4wvz5X8uHaD",
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'data-raw': {
'encryptedPassword': false,
"identifier": "hadwe",
'password': '88asc'
}
}).then(res => {
console.log(res.data)
})
}

--data-raw
is the body.
const response = await axios.post(
'https://api-capital.backend-capital.com/api/v1/session',
{
'encryptedPassword': 'false',
'identifier': '[email protected]',
'password': 'Xxxx9999_'
},
{
headers: {
'X-CAP-API-KEY': 'evSl********S26P',
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}
}
)

Zac's answer above is perfect, the body data which is curl is the --raw-data
is the 2nd parameter of the axios.post
function, and the configuration for the request is the 3rd, in this configuration you can set the headers.
I recommend using Typescript when trying to figure out these libraries, because with Intellisense or even just TS language server you get a tone of help, basically telling you what each method's interface is right on your editor.
