Request 1. Receive data from application. The data is sent by POST. The data is formatted in json. The backend needs to decode this data and extract the "country" and "event" fields. Then the backend needs to increment a counter in the database for the current day for the respective country and event.

Answer: To get this results make a call: Hit in your browser this url:

http://localhost:8000/send_json.php      (and this php file will do POST to receive_json.php)

Change JSON data (country name, and event name) in send_json.php to see how is everything 
processed and saved to database.
