Newbie trying API to turn on/off a switch

What I can’t figure out is how to format a POST command to do the work

Maybe this example helps you

I am following SmartThings API doc: https://developer-preview.smartthings.com/api/public/#operation/executeDeviceCommands and I am trying to to send a POST request to my device. I have a token etc… and it works fine for switch but I can’t find a way to put arguments correctly for switchLevel. Maybe someone can share a working example?

THIS WORKS IN POSTMAN
POST: https://api.smartthings.com/v1/devices/{deviceId}/commands
BODY:

[
{
“component”:“main”,
“capability”:“switch”,
“command”:“off”,
“argument”:
}
]
