send http optional request method request			send a http POST request and check if the response status code is 200
	url	relative url to which the request will be sent		No
	method	request method	Optional. Valid values are get, post, put, delete, patch and head. Defaults to get. It is also possible to put the method in the keyword, as in send http post request or send http delete request instead of providing this argument.	No
	json	a valid JSON string that contains the body of the request, will make the Content-Type of the request 'application/json'	Optional. Cannot use it together with body.	No
