payloadBytes, err := json.Marshal(payload) if err != nil { fmt.Println("Error marshaling payload:", err) return }
req, err := http.NewRequest("POST", apiURL, bytes.NewReader(payloadBytes)) if err != nil { fmt.Println("Error creating request:", err) return }
req.Header.Set("Content-Type", "application/json") req.Header.Set("Authorization", "Bearer API_TOKEN")
client := http.DefaultClient resp, err := client.Do(req) if err != nil { fmt.Println("Error sending request:", err) return } defer resp.Body.Close()
if resp.StatusCode >= 200 && resp.StatusCode < 300 { fmt.Println("Log event sent successfully!") } else { fmt.Println("Failed to send log event. Response code:", resp.StatusCode) }}
