API with Insert from URL

[JTSmith]

OK, I'm using FM16 and trying to figure out an API call.  I'm not an expert when it comes to APIs.

I have a shopify store, and I can use Insert from URL to get the JSON info on each order.  I want to be able to "PUT" and upload parts of the order.  Every order has a "Note" field that I can add notes.  Per the shopify API documentation, to add an order note, you do the following:

Add Note to order

PUT /admin/orders/#{id}.json

{
  "order": {
    "id": 450789469,
    "note": "Customer contacted us about a custom engraving on this iPod"
  }
}

 

Can someone help me with what I put in the cURL options area?  Any help would be appreciated.  I think I have the URL and Target figured out.  Thank you!!

Save your json to a variable, like $requestData, then add this curl option:

--data @$requestData
