Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I would like to POST into my Dash App

Describe the solution you'd like

A dedicate component that handles HTTPs requests, and that can be used in regular callbacks

Describe alternatives you've considered

Using a button or interval: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69360808/is-it-possible-to-call-dash-application-with-http-request-and-pass-there-some-da

However, a button requires user's intervention and interval makes unnecessary use of resources in this case.

Thanks!
