During his presidency, Barack Obama's use of war powers involved a mix of military interventions, troop withdrawals, and efforts to seek congressional authorization for certain actions. He increased the U.S. military presence in Afghanistan during his first term, then began a withdrawal, and also authorized the raid that killed Osama bin Laden. Additionally, he sought authorization from Congress for military action in Syria following the use of chemical weapons, but Congress did not grant it, according to Wikipedia.
Here's a more detailed look:
Afghanistan:
.
Obama escalated the war in Afghanistan early in his presidency, but later began a significant troop withdrawal.
Osama bin Laden Raid:

Syria:
