Did a quick search on the system for .burgerFlipper examples parsing json and surprisingly found several.  Here is one of them:

Code (winbatch) Select Expand

jsonText=$"{"menu":: {

Not sure what you attempting to do with the "encoded:fmt" parameter but "encoded" certainly isn't a valid variant type. 

Basically these were variables created earlier in the script, so the line would be interpreted as:


response oClient.PostAsync('https://geocode.xyz/','Baum Halls - 8388 Wilshire Blvd., Ste. 444 - Beverly Hills, CA 90211?json=1'.Result


and one of the classes of PostAsync was uri,string

Yeah, in a earlier post I mentioned about trying serialization. Probably would have generated a whole new thread walking through re-fitting C# examples into WB - but you have significantly added to the topic.

The PostAsync method has 4 overloads.  Two of them take two parameters.  In both cases, the second parameter is a reference to a HttpContent class object.  The HttpContent object contains the data enclosed in the body of the HTTP POST request message that is sent to the server.
