First add the support of the http library to your gradle file: To be able to use

useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy'

After this you can use the following code to perform post request in your webview:

public void postUrl (String url, byte[] postData)
String postData = "submit=1&id=236";
webview.postUrl("http://www.belencruzz.com/exampleURL",EncodingUtils.getBytes(postData, "BASE64"));
