How can I do a request like this using the ktor client?
curl --request POST --form "field=value" <http://localhost:8080>
I have tried looking at submitForm but when using this it just gives this error: Serializer for class 'FormDataContent' is not found.

I don't know why submitForm doesn't work, but you can manually wrap the body in MultiPartFormDataContent and it seems to work

Sorry, found my mistake.
I had this in my client configuration:

header(HttpHeaders.ContentType, ContentType.Application.Json)
