I'm testing another system written in PHP. In that case, there is 60 attributes in that body. I post this article edited by hand.

Admittedly, I'm missing right curly brace but, it's just mistake by hand.

In actuality, that request body generated by json_encode() function so, it is not a point of that problem.

Can't say I understand your dev/debugging environment if you have to hand-retype the request.

In any case your payload doesn't conform at all to the docs, which show:

{

"input" : [

{

"leadId" : 1001,

"activityDate" : "2013-09-26T06:56:35+07:00",

"activityTypeId" : 1001,

"primaryAttributeValue" : "Game Giveaway",

"attributes" : [

{

"name" : "URL",

"value" : "http://www.nvidia.com/game-giveaway"

}

]

}

]

}

attributes is an array of objects. Each object has two own properties, name and value. You're doing something very different, and obvs. that's why it's breaking.

If those extra commas are actually in the request, they are creating null members. Only the last comma is ignored.
