WebTools - Error "Invalid JSON payload"

Good Afternoon, 

Running a super basic test to validate i can send a POST to our Ansible Tower Listener.

Search: 

| makeresults
| eval header="{\"content-type\":\"application/json\"}"
| eval data="{\"Message\": \"This is a test\"}"
| eval id="http://Somehost:someport/"
| curl method=post urifield=id headerfield=header datafield=data debug=true


The same payload in Postman works 100% 

what i have noticed is that its converting the double quotes to single:
curl_data_payload:
{'monitor_state': 'unmonitored'}

When i test this payload in Post man it also fails with the same message invalid JSON payload.

Has Anyone had this issue? knows how to address it... I have no hair left to rip out.
