Hey! Try `curl -i` to include response headers in the output. Sometimes the error details are hiding there.

Also, if the API uses HTTPS, maybe add `--insecure` (just for testing!) to skip cert checks.

For debugging post output of an API using curl, I swear by `-v` and `--stderr -`. Combine them to see everything in real time.

Also, test with a minimal payload first—like just `{}`—to rule out JSON issues.
