Explore Borrower API

1. In your browser, navigate to the Create a Borrower API documentation:

   http://localhost:3000/hexyback-workshop/docs/hexy/create-a-borrower

2. Modify the sample request body:

   { 
     "name": "ben",
     "email": "ben.bowers@journeyone.com",
     "dob": "1999-01-01",
     "creditScore": 500
   }

3. Copy the curl request, replacing http://localhost:3000 with the URL of your deployed API endpoint - apiEndpoint:

   ✔  Deployed:
    ConfigStack
    # Use the URL shown below
    apiEndpoint: https://xxxxxxx.execute-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/prod/ 

4. Paste the curl request into your terminal and hit Enter:

   curl -L -X POST 'https://xxxxxxx.execute-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/prod/borrower' \
   -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
   -H 'Accept: application/json' \
   --data-raw '{
     "name": "ben",
     "email": "ben.bowers@journeyone.com",
     "dob": "1999-01-01",
     "creditScore": 500
   }'
