You can provision the request body from a json or xml file when sending POST requests:

networker request --method POST --file <file-path> --url <url-endpoint>

If you pass a json or xml file the Content-Type header is automatically set for you.

If you wan't to add your own custom headers as a comma-separated list of key/value pairs.
