Trying to create a POST request with Apache

I have tried many different ways to do this with apache but the server seems to not be receiving the data. Stacktraces are not being printed so I can only assume I have the request set up wrong for the server to receive the data. My current code looks like this:

try {
    fixUntrustCertificate();
    url = new URL("https://panel.<address>.com/api/v1/server/send_command? 
    token=" + apikey + "&id=6");
    CloseableHttpClient client = HttpClients.createDefault();

    //POST to be executed
    HttpPost post = new HttpPost("https://panel. 
    <address>.com/api/v1/server/send_command?token=" + apikey + "&id=6");


    //data to send in POST
    List<BasicNameValuePair> params = new ArrayList<BasicNameValuePair>();
    params.add(new BasicNameValuePair("command", command)); 
    //command is a console command such as "ping", which would warrant 
    //"pong" in response from the server.


    //Headers
    post.setHeader("User-Agent", "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; 
    x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/88.0.4324.192 
    Safari/537.36");
    post.setHeader("Accept", "text/html");
    post.setHeader("Host", "panel.<address>.com");
    post.setHeader("Content-Type", "multipart/form-data");

    //Entity to send
    post.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(params));

    //POST execution
    client.execute(post);
    client.close();

} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
    String stack = ExceptionUtils.getStackTrace(e);
    stackTrace = stack;
} catch (IOException e) {
    String stack = ExceptionUtils.getStackTrace(e);
    stackTrace = stack;
} catch (JSONException e) {
    String stack = ExceptionUtils.getStackTrace(e);
    stackTrace = stack;
} catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException e) {
        String stack = ExceptionUtils.getStackTrace(e);
    stackTrace = stack;
} catch (KeyManagementException e) {
    String stack = ExceptionUtils.getStackTrace(e);
    stackTrace = stack;
}
