Implementation notes

A few practical reminders when sharing request samples with teammates or docs:

Prefer placeholders like YOUR_API_KEY over real secrets.
When using JSON, make sure your Content-Type matches the payload.
For GET and HEAD requests, most APIs expect an empty body.
Show the exact headers required for auth, versioning, or idempotency.
Use form encoding only when the endpoint explicitly expects it.
