HTTP_POST is url, message, options
The options are set as JSON entries in the options string. See https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.5?topic=functions-http-get-http-get-blob#rbafzscahttpget__HTTP_options
Try sending the message elements as JSON also ... use the url encoding functions in SQL to encode the actual data first ... then your

- data-urlencode 'grant_type=client_credentials'\
-- data-urlencode 'client_id=<client_id>'\
-- data-urlencode 'client_secret=<client_secret>'

becomes the second arg to HTTP_POST:
'{"grant_type": "client_credentials", "client_id": "client_id", "client_secret": "client_secret"}'

I think ... don't have time to test right now ... let us know if you have problems.
