Market price purchase

What parameters/values must be present in a POST request sent to https://paper-api.alpaca.markets/v2/orders to place an order for a desired ticker at any time (like 3 am, i.e., out of extended trading hours, or 4 am when extended hours start) to purchase stocks for a presently available market price? The API documentation lists so many limitations with the parameters that it seems impossible to buy stocks at spot price out of regular trading hours (9:30 am - 4:00 pm ET). Please advise.
