Form Encoded Data

from requests import post

payload = {'key1' : 'value1',
           'key2' : 'value2'
           }

foo = post('http://httpbin.org/post', data=payload)

To pass form encoded data with the post operation, data must be structured as dictionary and supplied as the data parameter.

If the data does not want to be form encoded, simply pass a string, or integer to the data parameter.

Supply the dictionary to the json parameter for Requests to format the data automatically:

from requests import post

payload = {'key1' : 'value1', 'key2' : 'value2'}

foo = post('http://httpbin.org/post', json=payload)
