http: Send JSON object.
$ http ${example-org} ${name='bob'}
try on your machine

The command you provided seems to be using a tool called http to make an HTTP request. Here's a breakdown of the command:

http - This is the command itself, likely referring to the httpie command-line HTTP client.

${example-org} - This is a placeholder that represents the URL or domain name of the target server. The actual value may vary based on the context. The ${} syntax implies that it refers to an environment variable or a command substitution, meaning the value will be dynamically replaced at runtime with the appropriate value.

${name='bob'} - This is another placeholder, possibly representing a query parameter or a request body parameter. Again, the actual meaning and usage may differ based on context. Here, it assigns the value 'bob' to a name parameter. The = sign is used to associate the value with the parameter.

Overall, this command is likely used for making an HTTP request to a specific URL or domain, possibly with additional parameters. The exact behavior and implications would depend on the specific tool being used and the purpose of making the request.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
