try on your machine
The command you provided is an HTTP request that makes use of the http
command-line tool. It is making an HTTP DELETE request to the URL ${https:--example-com-todos-7}
with an additional header API-Key: foo
.
Let's break down the command:
http
is a command-line tool commonly used to make HTTP requests.DELETE
is the HTTP method being used in this request. It indicates that the client wants to delete a resource at the given URL.${https:--example-com-todos-7}
is a placeholder for the actual URL. The URL needs to be properly formatted and should be substituted in place of this placeholder. For example, if the intended URL ishttps://example.com/todos/7
, it should be used instead.${API-Key:foo}
is an additional header being sent in the request. It specifies the value of theAPI-Key
header asfoo
. This header can be used for authentication or authorization purposes.
To successfully execute this command, replace the placeholders with their appropriate values and use a tool like httpie
or curl
to send the request.
