There seems to be quite a bit of misunderstanding here. PUT versus POST is not really about replace versus create, but rather about idempotency and resource naming. PUT is an idempotent operation. With it, you give the name of a resource and an entity to place as that resource’s content (possibly with server-generated additions). Crucially, … Read more
cURL > 7.18.0 has an option –data-urlencode which solves this problem. Using this, I can simply send a POST request as curl -d name=john –data-urlencode passwd=@31&3*J https://www.example.com Summarizing the comments, in case of mixed “good” and “bad” data and exclamation marks inside we can use on Windows: curl -d “grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=super-client&acr_values=tenant:TNT123” –data-urlencode “client_secret=XxYyZ21D8E&%fhB6kq^mXQDovSZ%Q*!ipINme” https://login.example.com/connect/token

You can use the HTML target=”” attribute on a <form /> tag, so it could be as simple as: <form action=”do_stuff.aspx” method=”post” target=”my_iframe”> <input type=”submit” value=”Do Stuff!”> </form> <!– when the form is submitted, the server response will appear in this iframe –> <iframe name=”my_iframe” src=”https://stackoverflow.com/questions/168455/not_submitted_yet.aspx”></iframe> If that’s … Read more
I guess there’s no such feature in postman as to run concurrent tests. If I were you, I would consider Apache jMeter, which is used exactly for such scenarios.
