While that does seem correct, I have been trying to send data via ajax to the server with no result other than http 400 errors and http 500 errors. Upon rereading that help section it seems that it is more suited for filling out the form from another source rather than sending data to the server or starting the process.

Although it may be possible to start the process via ajax I can't figure out what the server wants me to send it for it to be happy and run. If I could get confirmation on what needs to be sent to the server and in what form that would help.

EX. does the server require every field on the form to have an object in JSON? even if it is empty? and what type of data does the server want? a string? a JSON object? XML?

Actually the help page I provided is for using http post to populate fields on the form, it will not be able to submit the form. It is similar as you populate the fields values by passing them in the URL. The use case is you can populate fields for another form embed in current form using JavaScript.
