The error occurs because of incorrect JSON formatting in your Body section. Here's how to fix it: 1. Make sure to enclose both the key and value in double quotes: LBKS{ "linkedin_profile": "Profile Url" }LBKS2. If you're using a dynamic column as the value, you must include quotes around the dynamic column tag. Some additional tips to avoid this error: ** Check for any extra commas at the end of lines ** Be mindful of spaces, colons, and brackets * Consider pasting your JSON into a validator like JSONLint to check the formatting Note: As of October 2024, you must enclose dynamic string variables in quotation marks when using the HTTP API enrichment column.

Based on your JSON format, here's how to fix the "Failed to parse body" error: 1. Make sure both the key and value are enclosed in double quotes: LBKS{ "linkedin_profile": "Profile Url" }LBKSKey points to check: • No extra commas at the end • Proper spacing around colons • Correct placement of brackets • No hidden characters If you're using a dynamic column value (like /column), remember that as of October 2024, you must still enclose it in quotation marks. For additional validation, you can paste your JSON into a validator like JSONLint to check the formatting.
