on your Mac, click Show More in the Get Contents of URL action.The following options for the types of API requests you can make become available:
GETallows you to retrieve data.POSTallows you to create new data.PUTallows you to update data by replacing it.PATCHallows you to update data by modifying it.DELETEallows you to remove an object specified in the URL request.
For this example, use a GET request to retrieve data from the Typicode API.
Now that the URL action has your request and the Get Contents of URL action is set up to GET data, you’re ready to make the API request.
Note: When the Get Contents of URL action is switched to POST, PUT, or PATCH, a new parameter called Request Body is added. Request Body allows you to send JSON, a Form, or a File to the API as part of your request. This lets you enter new data manually or by using variables so you can send the data to the API for creating, replacing, or modifying an entry.
To test the shortcut, click Intro to using JSON in Shortcuts on Mac.
