**API Endpoint(s) and/or Zoom API Event(s)**  
Using the Zoom Meeting API  
[https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/me/meetings](https://api.zoom.us/v2/users/me/meetings)

**Description**  
Receiving a bad JSON error but I’m not sure why. I checked [https://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/](https://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/) and confirmed it is valid JSON. So I wonder if I’m implementing the schema incorrectly.

**Error?**  
Receiving this in Postman

\<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?\> `300` Request Body should be a valid JSON object.

**How To Reproduce**  
_Steps to reproduce the behavior:_  
\*1. Request URL / Headers \*_(without credentials or sensitive info like emails, uuid, etc.)_  
content-type application/json

- / Body\*

_2. Authentication method or app type_  
Postman

_3. Any errors_  
Just the bad json error
