  # Provided Encoders
   - `GETURLEncoded`

      This uses FormData to prepare a url-encoded payload for GET requests, it
      does not set custom headers because HTTPoison and Hackney do this
      automatically.

   - `JSON`

      This uses Poison to prepare a binary payload for POST, PATCH, and PUT
      requests, it sets a custom `Content-Type` header to `application/json`.

   - `Multipart`

      This uses FormData to prepare a multipart payload for POST, PATCH, PUT
      requests. It does not set custom headers because HTTPoison and Hackney do
      this automatically.

   - `NilEncoder`

      This does not encode any data, it is only useful for documentation purposes
      when using HTTPoison's delete/2 function, since DELETE requests do not carry
      payloads.

   - `URLEncoded`

      This uses FormData to prepare a url-encoded payload for POST, PATCH< and PUT
      requests. It does not set custom headers because HTTPoison and Hackney do
      this automatically.
