I get an error

  {"message": "Could not parse request body into json: Unexpected character (\'o\' (code 111)): was expecting comma to separate OBJECT entries\n at [Source: [B@6859f1ef; line: 2, column: 22]"}
when using double quotes. It seems some JSON parsing fails. Not sure if this can be exploited, so I wanted to let you know.

I get an error changing the example request from 68 to 67 characters:
