just a small curl question

[horstepipe 356]

Hello guys,

I hope that somebody has a minute to help a little.

I want to create lots of collections via api. From the api reference I have this command

curl -X POST "http://url/emby/Collections?IsLocked=false&Name=Test12&api_key=xxx" -H "accept: application/json"

but from what I know I can't use this syntax in a script as the name field has to be url encoded (there are often special signs in the name).

So now I'm trying to use this format, but here I'm always getting

Access token is invalid or expired

 

curl -X POST https://url/emby/Collections --data-urlencode "Name=#Test11" --data-urlencode "Ids=5876939" -d "api_key=xx" -H "accept: application/json"

 

What is wrong here?

Hi, try that as a get rather than a post.
