How can I use gzip for ktor-client POST requests (not response)?
ktolin 1.4.10, ktor 1.4.1, native/curl
I’ve added

ContentEncoding {
            gzip()
        }

But the server team says that request body not in gzip.

You can use ContentEncoding feature only for decoding received response. To solve your problem you can manually compress POST body and send it.

It not usable for native 😞
