Using Here route-matching API to find the attributes of the streets using OSMNX in Python

Question

I have a set of GPS coordinates for a trip which is somehow noisy. I want to extract the street attributes (eg., type of street, number of lanes, length, speed limit) on which the driver rode using OSMNX. OSMnx is a Python package that lets you download geospatial data from OpenStreetMap. I am wondering how I can send request to HERE API sending my GPS coordinates as a list of tuples, and receive a set of U,V ID's corresponding to OpenStreetMap street IDs.

I tried to use Python Request package to send a "Post" request to Here route matching API, but I didn't work. I tried to find an example code, but I couldn't find that either.

I don't know about Python but curl command works perfect, if you can transform curl request to Python then it will work for you (please don't forget to set your correct apikey):

curl --location --request POST 'https://routematching.hereapi.com/v8/match/routelinks?routeMatch=1&mode=fastest;car;traffic:disabled;&attributes=SPEED_LIMITS_FCn(*),LINK_ATTRIBUTE_FCn(*),TRAFFIC_PATTERN_FCn(*),TRUCK_SPEED_LIMITS_FCn(*),SPEED_LIMITS_VAR_FCn(*),SPEED_LIMITS_COND_FCn(*),APPLICABLE_SPEED_LIMIT(*),LANE_FCn(*),ROAD_NAME_FCn(*),POINT_ADDRESS(*)&apikey=yourapikey' \
