I want to send a request body to a API method which contains ,

    I do have similar problem when I try to get tokeb using Media-Type :  'x-www-form-urlencoded'

    and below is my format

    grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=123456&client_secret=789000

    No Luck.

    ITs REST POST CMD withh body of type 'x-www-form-urlencoded'. It works perfect in POSTMAN. 

    Would like to know what is the format need to be sent along the body of type 'x-www-form-urlencoded' to get token.

    Appreciate quick help
