cURL is an open source, command-line tool for transferring data with URL syntax. To connect securely to the server, you must install a version of cURL that supports SSL.

Invoke cURL and specify one or more of the command-line options defined in the following table, as required, to direct its execution.

-F, --form @file.json	Identifies form data, in JSON format, on the local machine. Also passes parameters for creating or updating an application.
-H	Defines one or all of the following: Content type of the request document Custom header, X-ID-TENANT-NAME, to identify the identity domain The Authorization header with the user name and password for the account, for example, Authorization:[e-mail]:myPassword.
