I have a RoR application from where I need to call a 3rd party API with several different calls. GET requests work fine with both Postman and HTTParty, but I can't get POST to work with latter. In Postman, I have a default request with basic auth, headers and a half dozen parameters in the body with the default form-data option.
The Postman request works fine, but I've been having hard time to replicate the request to HTTParty, leading to the API responding with error as parameters are missing.
Here's some of the code I've been working with to no avail:
options = { headers: {"Accept"=>"application/json", "Content-Type"=>"application/json"},
:debug_output => $stdout, body: { "param1" => 1, "param2" => 5,
"param3" => 'foo', "param4" => 'bar', "param5" => 'test' }
.to_json,
basic_auth: {:username=>'censored', :password=>'censored'} }
response = HTTParty.post("#{Settings.api_url}", options)

Content-Type: application/json\r\nAuthorization: Basic censored\r\nConnection: close\r\n
Host: www.censored.com\r\n
Content-Length: 113\r\n\r\n"
<- "{\"param1\":1,\"param2\":5,\"param3\":\"foo\",\"param4\":\"bar\",\"param5\":\"test\"}"
-> "HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\n"

-> "Pragma: no-cache\r\n"
-> "Content-Length: 61\r\n"
-> "Connection: close\r\n"
-> "Content-Type: application/json\r\n"
-> "\r\n"
reading 61 bytes...
and then comes the error response. I tried with various combinations regarding body, also trying to set Accept and Content-Type headers to multipart/formdata but didn't get it working. How could I replicate the Postman request?
