How to escape a $ in a bash command

Question

I am trying to do the following command:

 curl -k -i -X POST -d ' { "path" : "/" }' 
    https://david:mypa$$@example.com:9092/files/browse

How would I properly send the above command, given that my password is mypa$$ ?

Single Quote it: `'https://david:mypa$$@example.com:9092/files/browse'` — anubhava, Aug 13 '18 at 17:59

Either enclosing them in single quotes or by prepending them with backslashes, like \$\$.
