On a post the parameters are not added to the URL.  If you want them to be sent 
as the body of the post (e.g. 
like a form post), use the "Parameter Body" button to create the content.

If you'd like the ability to automatically add them to the POST's URL, please 
submit a feature request as that 
would be a new feature.

Ok, the sequencing is a little weird, but I see what you are saying now. You 
have to
go in and add the parameters and then click the Parameter Body button and it 
shows
the form parameters that it is adding to the post. Once I did that I could 
click Post
and it worked correctly.

I don't want to assume you want a parameters body which is why I don't do it 
automatically.  Do you have a 
suggest to do this in some other way?

Hmm, here is how I thought it would have worked (if that is worth anything :)).

I entered my url, clicked the parameters tab, added my name/value parameters 
and then
clicked the post button and it didn't work.

What I figured out from your response is that I had to add my parameters and 
then
click the content to send tab then the parameter button, see the parameters 
that it
was going to send, then click the post button. 

Does that make sense?

Yes.  I'll have to think about what the correct behavior is for this but I 
certainly see how this could be improved.

For now, a notice in the parameters tab would be great. I just wondered, why 
they are
not sent automatically.

I would propose to add the same button as "Parameter Body" available in the 
"Parameters" tab, just after the list of possible parameters. Further to follow 
the "normal" read flow of a person (e.g. from top left to bottom right) I would 
suggest you can move the button bar "Actions" at the bottom of the main dialog 
box and entitle the three tabs "Content to Send", "Headers" and "Parameters" 
with new bold title "Settings". So there will be three main sections "Request", 
"Settings" and "Actions". Besides that huge thumbs up for the add-on! Keep up 
the good work!
