I'm trying to make a POST Request using HTTP action, but i'm getting this error : BadRequest. Http request failed: the content was not a valid JSON. Error while parsing JSON: 'Unexpected character encountered while parsing value: O. Path '', line 0, position 0.'  

All of the params are corrects and the JSON is a valid JSON.

Using Postman, the request works fine without any issue.

    Double-check the exact headers and payload being sent using Postman and ensure they match what you're sending from Power Automate. Also, does your data contain any special characters?

    The 'Content-Type' is the only one header needed and there is no special character, only letters and numbers :(

    It seems tha it doesn't recognize the '{' as a valid character.

    I dont knowm whatelse to do
