How to create a card via the DOMO Card API

Referring to this API:

https://developer.domo.com/portal/8260c0e561f08-cards-api

which could definitely benefit from more clarity and cohesion in its documentation.

In particular I have been unable to do POST requests for creating a card. I have obtained the authorisation token already, and are able to perform other requests such as updating a dataset.

I'm not sure if it's due to the body, but even with the sample data that I'm sending from https://developer.domo.com/portal/5bba626873010-create-chart-card gives me a mighty network error.

curl --request POST \
  --url 'https://api.domo.com/v1/cards/chart?pageId={PAGE_ID_HERE}' \
  --header 'Accept: */*' \
  --header 'Authorization: {AUTH_TOKEN_HERE}' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{DATA}'

Using the provided sample data gives a 403 error. That makes sense, considering the sample data's fields seems to be placeholders.

I would like to check if anyone is able to create a card via the API, since it does get a bit tedious when guessing-and-checking possible data bodies.

I don't have the answer but I can confirm the same behavior. I also get Network Error when I attempt to utilize this API.

I am able to successfully use List Cards:
developer.domo.com/portal/80e9ecc922752-list-cards

But I am unable (I receive 500 Internal Server Error) to use "Get Chart Card Definition":
developer.domo.com/portal/42d54af2095ac-get-chart-card-definition

I would think being able to get an existing card definition would shed more light on what the expected POST request would look like.

I'm also struggling with the above. We need to update a lot of card details en masse, and it would be really good to get this API working again properly.
