Invalid Json Message , linebreaks?

Question

Hi,

I’m needing some help on what I think should be pretty simple!

I’m using a zapier webhook as below: however it throughs a invalid json message.

Now I think this is due to the line breaks in the input fields, as you can see hopefully in this test case.

What I’mm trying to figure out with no luck is how to handle / strip the line breaks so the json is valid. I’ve tried the formatter feature but I can’t seem to get that to work correctly. Any help very much appreciated.

i’m trying to post this to https://app.swaggerhub.com/apis/ProdPad/prodpad/1.1.4#/Ideas/PostIdeas

Thanks
