Lemmy API Examples
I'm looking for examples of calls to the Lemmy API.. I've been to the following link in the documentation:
https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/contributors/04-api.html
However I don't see any direct examples of uses of the API for common cases, like creating a post, creating a comment or getting either type of item. Some of the linked documentation from that page points to what I believe is typescript code for interfaces, but that does not really have examples of actually calling those interfaces. I can make some logical guesses at to what the calls should be, but I don't have a way to really verify this yet.
Does anyone have some working examples they can post?

Does this look right?
Very jank response because I’m on my phone!
Looks like you’ll need to POST the header Auth with the token you receive as a LoginResponse https://join-lemmy.org/api/interfaces/LoginResponse.html

Cool. Then my other answer is correct. I appreciate the help!
