"Getting errors with requests.post in Python - any solutions?"

Hey guys,

I’m trying to use requests.post python to hit an API, but keep getting errors. Like, sometimes it’s a 400 or 500, other times the JSON just won’t send right.

Here’s my code:

```python
response = requests.post(url, json=data, headers=headers)
```

Am I missing something? The API docs say it should work, but nah.

Also, how do you handle timeouts or retries? Mine just fails silently sometimes.

Any tips or fixes? Thanks!
