HI @JSR_Techno_Talk_s

You will need to stringify your JSON data so that you can pass the JSON in body as a string something like below so that you can pass this string the BODY as a string.

“{"clientKey" :"ed234444444444""task":{"type:"ImageToTextTask","body":"rjIUIGWEaX2gk43lJK8dMLPJFijro305mdfopdOP="}”

To easily do this you can use https://jsonformatter.org/json-stringify-online to convert your JSON to String
