Step 4 Click on Send and see response.

Congrats, you are an integration pro now. You just created an asset in Maximo using OSLC and HTTP post.This feature is provided to Maximo by the JSON API and can be used to do variety of CRUD operations on Maximo objects.
You can replace asset with work order or other objects and test them as well.This is an important feature which will be used if you are trying to update asset in Maximo via a mobile application built on Angular/React or other hybrid frameworks.
This can also be used with other frameworks and you can use JQUERY with AJAX to post the requests to Maximo.
Similar feature can be implemented with REST and HTTP post to create objects as explained in this Maximo blog but they work only with XML, to play around with JSON for mobile applications OSLC works best.
Trouble shooting : In case you get the below error.
oslc:message": "BMXAA0021E - User name and password combination are not valid. Try again.",
Solution: Please append _lid & _lpwd in URL to fix this.
