Hello, Unfortunately, storing a static file that you would post repeatedly is not going to work. The access token you use in the Authentication HTTP header is only good for a maximum of one hour before it expires.
Like Jason said, we're here to help you if you have API-specific issues, but I can't help you fulfill your entire use case from scratch. If you do run into API-specific questions about how to make specific kinds of requests, please don't hesitate to ask.
