How to implement an API REST POST in Matlab

I was able to implement a API GET using webread as following

api = 'https://api.pontomais.com.br/external_api/v1/teams?attributes=id,code,name,department,leader';

options = weboptions('KeyName','access-token','KeyValue','XXXXXX');

Data = webread(api,options);

However I dont know how to implement a POST in Matlab. See next the POST in cURL. Does anyone know how to do it?

curl --location --request POST 'https://api.pontomais.com.br/external_api/v1/reports/work_days' \

--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \

--header 'access-token: XXXXXX' \

--data-raw '{

"report": {

"start_date": "2021-06-01",

"end_date": "2021-07-01",

"group_by": "employee",

"row_filters": "with_inactives,has_time_cards",

"columns": "date,shift_name,time_breaks,shift_appointments,time_cards,summary,extra_time,total_time,shift_time,custom_interval_time,overnight_time,registration_number,time_balance,motive, employee_id",

"format": "json"

}

}'

matlab.net.http.RequestMessage

Send HTTP request message and receive response - MATLAB (mathworks.com)

basically, just set the request method to POST

Look at either:

weboptions('RequestMethod','post')

ans = 
  weboptions with properties:

      CharacterEncoding: 'auto'
              UserAgent: 'MATLAB 9.10.0.1716447 (R2021a) Update 4'
                Timeout: 5
               Username: ''
               Password: ''
                KeyName: ''
               KeyValue: ''
            ContentType: 'auto'
          ContentReader: []
              MediaType: 'auto'
          RequestMethod: 'post'
            ArrayFormat: 'csv'
           HeaderFields: []
    CertificateFilename: 'default'
