Triggering Active on Site Metric via Post API call

Question

Hello,I’m starting to learn APIs. I’d like to trigger an API call from PostMan.I am using the Post - Create Client EventCode looks like the below: {    "data": {        "type": "event",        "attributes": {            "properties":                { "browser":"firefox",                    "os":"Windows",                    "page":"http://www.example.com/landing"},            "metric": {                "data": {                    "type": "metric",                    "attributes": {                        "name":"Active on Site" But when I run the code it puts a 2nd metric in my klaviyo account with the same name, so I then have 2 metrics with the same name - Active on Site. Why is this?How can I trigger the Active on Site metric that is in Klaviyo? Dilan

I'm trying to trigger a flow without having a store.

Is it possible for me to trigger the flow for Active on Site, using just an API call?

Basically I want to test my flows without having to actually trigger them as a customer.
