Post JSON to URL Action

This action allows you to send JSON data to a specified URL using curl.

Inputs

• URL: The URL where the JSON will be sent (required)
• AUTHORIZATION: The authorization header content for the API (required)
• JSON: The JSON data that will be sent to the URL (required)

Outputs

• response: The response received from the API

Example usage

on: push

jobs:
  post_json:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
      - name: Post JSON to URL
        uses: anyscripts/post-json@v1.0.0
        with:
          URL: 'https://api.example.com/endpoint'
          AUTHORIZATION: Bearer ${{ secrets.API_TOKEN }}
          JSON: '{"data": "example"}'
      - name: Echo response
        run: echo ${{ steps.post_json.outputs.response }}

In this example, the action is triggered on a push event, and the post_json job is run. The action is called in the first step, and the URL, TOKEN, and JSON inputs are passed to it. In this example, the TOKEN input is passed as a secret, which is a secure way to store sensitive information.

The second step runs the command echo ${{ steps.post_json.outputs.response }} to display the response received from the API in the job logs.
