curl --location --request POST 'http://localhost:8080/nuix-restful-service/svc/v1/cases' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'Accept: application/json' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN' \
--data-raw '{
   "name":"LotusNotesTest",
   "location":"inventory0",
   "description":"About My simple Case",
   "compound":false,
   "investigator":"Inspector Gadget"
}'
