I'm trying to send a post request to Parse: https://parse.com/docs/rest#objects-creating. Can't get it to work correctly. I use the real the App and Rest API ID's in my program.
var https = require('https');
var options = {
host: 'api.parse.com',
port: 443,
path: '/1/classes/GameScore',
method: 'POST',
headers: {
X-Parse-Application-Id: "",
X-Parse-REST-API-Key: "",
Content-Type: "application/json";
}
data: {
"score": 1337, "playerName": "Sean Plott", "cheatMode": false
}
}
};
var req = https.request(options, function(res) {
console.log("statusCode: ", res.statusCode);
console.log("headers: ", res.headers);
res.on('data', function(d) {
process.stdout.write(d);
});
});
req.end();
req.on('error', function(e) {
console.error(e);
});
EDITED: Added error response:
SyntaxError: Unexpected token -
at Module._compile (module.js:406:25)

You cannot use -
as a key to the object without quotes.
So you need to change
headers: {
X-Parse-Application-Id: "",
X-Parse-REST-API-Key: "",
Content-Type: "application/json";
}
to be
headers: {
"X-Parse-Application-Id": "",
"X-Parse-REST-API-Key": "",
"Content-Type": "application/json";
}
