POSTing raw json into UnityWebRequest

Unity Engine
23

when dealing with this issue I found this thread first, found a great solution on another thread so I am posting it here to make it more obtainable

IEnumerator Post(string url, string bodyJsonString)
    {
        var request = new UnityWebRequest(url, "POST");
        byte[] bodyRaw = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(bodyJsonString);
        request.uploadHandler = (UploadHandler) new UploadHandlerRaw(bodyRaw);
        request.downloadHandler = (DownloadHandler) new DownloadHandlerBuffer();
        request.SetRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
        yield return request.SendWebRequest();
        Debug.Log("Status Code: " + request.responseCode);
    }
