        @"notify": @YES // Replace with the appropriate value
    };

    NSData *jsonData = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:payload options:0 error:nil];

    NSMutableURLRequest *request = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:apiURL];
    [request setHTTPMethod:@"POST"];
    [request setValue:@"application/json" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Content-Type"];
    [request setValue:@"Bearer API_TOKEN" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Authorization"];
    [request setHTTPBody:jsonData];

    NSURLSessionDataTask *task = [[NSURLSession sharedSession] dataTaskWithRequest:request completionHandler:^(NSData *data, NSURLResponse *response, NSError *error) {
        NSHTTPURLResponse *httpResponse = (NSHTTPURLResponse *)response;
        if (httpResponse.statusCode >= 200 && httpResponse.statusCode < 300) {
            NSLog(@"Log event sent successfully!");
        } else {
            NSLog(@"Failed to send log event. Response code: %ld", (long)httpResponse.statusCode);
        }
    }];

    [task resume];
