when would you use post in fetch code example

Example 1: javascript fetch api post

fetch('https://example.com/profile', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
  body: JSON.stringify({
  	'foo': 'bar'
  }),
})
  .then((res) => res.json())
  .then((data) => {
    // Do some stuff ...
  })
  .catch((err) => console.log(err));

Example 2: fetch post js

var myHeaders = new Headers();

var myInit = { method: 'POST',
               headers: myHeaders,
               mode: 'cors',
               cache: 'default' };

fetch('flowers.jpg',myInit)
.then(function(response) {
  return response.blob();
})
.then(function(myBlob) {
  var objectURL = URL.createObjectURL(myBlob);
  myImage.src = objectURL;
});
