I am unable to POST with json to the REST api. Every attempt is returned with:
{
"message": "Request syntactically incorrect. See the description
below for the correct usage:",
>From what I can see the syntax should be ok however I am unable to
locate any json examples for the ovirt REST api on github, or in any
ovirt docs.
Can you help me?
