Ways to fix

Summary: Need to send valid to the post endpoint

Code to run Flask API:

from flask import Flask, request
app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/post',methods = ['POST'])
def post():
 if request.method == 'POST':
 return request.get_json()


if __name__ == '__main__':
 app.run(debug = True)

Code to reproduce (WRONG):

curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:5000/post -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"key", "value"}' # Invalid json

Working version (Fixed):

curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:5000/post -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"key": "value"}' # <--- FIX: change to valid json
