I tried encoding the @ but that does not work either! curl -kX -u nlbdmobz%40sharklasers.com:password123 POST \ https://zqzqzqz555.couchappy.com/urls \ -d "{}" -H "Content-Type: application/json"
Please test it with the real database and login information I provided. Unfortunately I have to use curl here and I need to figure out what to do about "@". Thanks for the help!
