# Indexing via the JSON API

## Indexing a JSON file

Here's an example of a document that we want to index. Our index has been created with the built-in `demo` schema. Don't forget to replace `your_index_id` with the id of the index you created in the previous step.

```
POST http://localhost:8201/index/your_index_id
{
  "title": "Business Plan February 2018",
  "contents": "Our business plan for February 2018 is to grow from $10K MRR to $15k MRR. We will do this by doubling our client base."
}
```

and the equivalent cURL:

```
curl \
  -X POST \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{ "title": "Business Plan February 2019", "contents": "Our business plan for February 2018 is to grow from $10K MRR to $15k MRR. We will do this by doubling our client base." }' \
  http://localhost:8201/index/your_index_id
```
