I have post and get request URI's that I use in insomnia to make REST calls. It gets data there, but I need to make post and get calls using Splunk REST GUI. Please help.

I am using the key = '' and content Type= app/jsom for post call. The post request gets a key that I use as a token, using username and password, and the token generates another key, which I use to make a get call, which gets result in insomnia.

I need to make the same post and get calls in splunk. Please help

Thanks
