How to send a JSONObject to a REST service?

Question

Retrieving data from the REST Server works well, but if I want to post an object it doesn\'t work:

public static void postJSONObject(int store_type, Favorite

Your C# is different than your Java, and not just in syntax.

Your C# sends an application/json entity to the server via HTTP POST. I'll leave it up to HTTP purists as to whether that's appropriate use of POST (vs. PUT).

Your Java creates a form, with a field of jsonString (whose value is the JSON), and sends an application/x-www-form-urlencoded entity to the server containing that form.
