Well this is really new to me so I am not exactly sure what to find to answer more about what it is I need. But I found the following information on the APIs for the application I am trying to integrate with
All the APIs listed below will support request and response objects in both XML and JSON format. To get the desired responses, please specify in your request header either "Accept=application/xml" or "Accept=application/json". By default, "Accept=application/xml" is used.
 All list REST APIs will be supporting only the following due to performance reason: scope=VIEW,BASE and detail=BASIC. For details on the default values check the REST url below.
Note:

  * * means the query param is required.
  * Case insensitive input should be supported for all the values of the path params and all the values of the query params
  * For PUT method, fully populated xml object is required for HTTP Body. In general, the input xml object contains only BASE level members. However, there might be exceptions. Developers should document the templates in the wiki page.

Neither my coworker or my experience has not been in html or json. So I was thinking that the body should pass in either the -d or -f. But I don't think I understand what the parameter would be. My coworker tired passing the values in put just like it is above but from what I read I thought it would need to be more like. -d "userName = approver0_at_somewhere.com& name= REJECTED&approvalComment=comment" I also tried to have it in a file just as it is in the 1st email but I keep getting the error "No data record of requested type"
