How to define headers in json?

[jwillmer]

I need to supply a json payload and the HTTP request does not allow to use header params when defining json payload. But how is the json format for HTTP request headers? Also, does the header auth merge with the json headers?

Sorry I am not sure if I understand you correctly.

You wrote: "I need to supply a json payload and the HTTP request does not allow to use header params when defining json payload."
But in the screenshot afterwards you have headers defined {"Content-Type": ... and also a JSON payload (Body Parameters).

The format is simply:

{
  "name": "value"
}

Yes the headers get merged. The request library which gets used under the hood does take care of that.
