How to supply special parameters

POST Request with application type application/json: In this case arbitrary JSON is supplied (in the request body), which is converted to XML and passed to the parameter-transformation-input structure, inside the <input-from-request> element instead of the normal <parameter> elements. Note:

Any characters which would be illegal in XML (for example element name starting with a digit) replaced by _xxxx_ containing their hex unicode character code.
Note that if any JSON objects have a key _content, then a single XML element is created, with the value of that _content key as the text body, and other keys from the JSON object being attributes on the resulting XML element.
