UPDATE: The request works fine from my local SSH (Git Bash) environment.

I piped it into JQ and redirected that to a file I can view in vocode ... but that's mildly annoying, as I was really hoping to use a purpose built dev tool.

I'm new to API Requests in general.

I'm I have an admin API Token that should be able to do "all the things".

I'm using Postman and I'm trying to send queries to Chef Automate.

I'm following along with the Chef Automate API documentation: https://docs.chef.io/automate/api/

I have downloaded their JSON Schema definitions, and imported that into Postman, so I have examples of all the API they have ....

I mean, I'm the definition of "being hand held", LOL ... but things just aren't working.

Like I try to hit "/api/v0/compliance/nodes/search" to get a list of all my nodes ... as they suggest in the example, i apply a filter of "environment: prod" ... but it returns "Method Not Allowed", and i don't know what that means ... and the documentation doesn't mention that.

Specifically, I'm reading this:  "https://docs.chef.io/automate/api/#tag/ReportingService/operation/ReportingService_ListNodes"

Even if you're not familiar with Chef, or Automate ... I think I need help with API.
