Powershell v3 Invoke-RestMethod

Question

I am attempting to make use of the new invoke-restmethod cmdlet to POST a JSON file and have succesfully done so. However, I do not receive a response from the webserver like I did when using CURL. For what I'm trying to accomplish I need to take info from the reposne to the POST and use this for another POST command.

Can someone please explain how I can get the expected response from the server? Below are the two commands 1st in CURL, 2nd using Invoke-RestMethod. The curl command will perform the correct POST and return a response. The Powershell command will perform the correct POST but will not return a response.

Thanks

edit: The main thing I believe I am trying to get from ps output is the "response headers" ie. the output below from a curl command

 < HTTP/1.1 201 Created

Curl Command

 curl -f -v -s -k --no-sessionid -H X-em7-beautify-response:1 -H content-  type:application/json https://URLHERE --data-binary  @jsonfile.json

Powershell Code

 $cert=New-Object System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2("certfile.crt")
 $json = Get-Content jsonfile.json
 $cred = Get-Credential -Message "Enter Credentials"

 Invoke-RestMethod -Uri https://URLHERE -Credential $cred -Body $json -Certificate $cert -ContentType application/json -Method POST

Answer 1

After some fishing around I discovered the cmdlet Invoke-WebRequest. This cmdlet is basically identical to Invoke-RestMethod other than the fact that it returns the headers as well as response.
