Have you read documentation on MSDN?: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg328090.aspx

Simply post a json to proper url, below you have an example:

POST [Organization URI]/api/data/v8.2/leads HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
OData-MaxVersion: 4.0
OData-Version: 4.0
Accept: application/json

{
    "subject": "Test lead",
    "companyname": "Contoso",
    "firstname": "John",
    "lastname": "Smith",
    "emailaddress1": "[email protected]",
    "telephone1": "345345345",
    "mobilephone": "345345345" 
}
