POST mapcompounds
  https://rest.xialab.ca/api/mapcompounds

Headers
  Content-Type    application/json

Body    raw (application/json

  {
    "queryList": "1,3-Diaminopropane;2-Ketobutyric acid;2-Hydroxybutyric acid;2-Methoxyestrone;",
    "inputType": "name"
  }

    The different options for input.type are given below:
        name - Compound name (e.g., 1,3-Diaminopropane)
        hmdb - Human Metabolome Database (e.g., HMDB0000002)
