        std::cout << http.lastErrorText() << "\r\n";
        return;
    }

    std::cout << "Response Status Code: " << resp.get_StatusCode() << "\r\n";

    // Examine the request we sent.
    // The LastHeader property stores the HTTP request header of the most recent request sent,
    // and in this instance, the response body mirrors the request body.
    std::cout << http.lastHeader() << "\r\n";
    std::cout << resp.bodyStr() << "\r\n";

    // Output:

    // POST /echo_request_body.asp HTTP/1.1

    // Content-Type: application/json
    // Content-Length: 26
    //
