How to properly use httpx to send a POST request? Need help with parameters and headers!

Hey everyone!

So, I’m trying to figure out how to properly use httpx to send a POST request. I’ve got the basics down, but I’m kinda stuck on how to handle the parameters and headers. Like, do I just dump everything into the `data` or `json` field? And what’s the deal with headers—do I need to set `Content-Type` manually or does httpx handle that?

Here’s what I’ve got so far:
```python
import httpx

response = httpx.post('https://example.com/api', json={'key': 'value'})
```
But I’m not sure if I’m missing something. Also, what if I need to add custom headers?

Any tips or examples would be super helpful! Thanks in advance, y’all. 🙏

P.S. If anyone’s got a quick cheatsheet for httpx send post request, that’d be awesome!
