How to set the payload in XSJS

Question

Hi ,
I am trying to call this REST API with some URL params and I need to set payload along with this.But I'm not able to set it.
Where am I going wrong?
-A XSJS Application which is calling a REST API
var clientReport = new $.net.http.Client();
var payload=[];
payload.rpt=rpt;
$.request.setBody(payload)
clientReport.request($.net.http.POST, "http://XXXXXXXX:8080/Applicatin/?ID="+ID);
var responseReport=clientReport.getResponse();
Thank you .

Arpitha,
I think you are trying $.request.setBody() method. Do not use that. It is a read only object containing the we request received from external world via http.
create a new request object like
var request = new $.web.WebRequest($.net.http.POST,"/Employee" ); //employee being your entity
request.headers.set("x-csrf-token",CSRF);
request.headers.set("Content-Type","application/json"); 
then do request.setBody(JSON data);
