InvokeURL butchering JSON for OpenAI API calls

InvokeURL butchering JSON for OpenAI API calls

My organization works with mostly educational institutions. We have a custom module called "Schools", which is the user-entered school name they put when using our service (which they enter along with their state and zip code). We want to map this to a list of known schools from a public database that has both a standardized school name, address, phone number, and other data about the school (along with a unique identifier) stored in our org's Zoho Analytics database.

To accomplish this, we are trying to leverage OpenAI's API to find a "best match" of the unique ID. When a school is created in our system, I am getting the "State", "Zip", and entered school name. This runs a query in Zoho Analytics to return batches of 250 schools in that state at a time (to avoid API size problems), and runs this through OpenAI to find which in each batch is the closest match to what was entered, and saves that to a new array. This repeats for all schools in the state, then afterwards runs the set of "winners" through OpenAI one more time to get the best overall winner.

The problem is our API call to OpenAI - it continually returns 

{"error":{"message":"We could not parse the JSON body of your request. (HINT: This likely means you aren't using your HTTP library correctly. The OpenAI API expects a JSON payload, but what was sent was not valid JSON. If you have trouble figuring out how to fix this, please contact us through our help center at help.openai.com.)","type":"invalid_request_error","param":null,"code":null}}

I verified several times that my JSON body is indeed correct. I also have alternated between using "parameters" and "body", and various ways to stringify the payload - none of which have any improvement. Recommendations from ChatGPT believe that regardless of me specifying "content-type: application/json", it is still mangling the payload.

The worst part is - this actually worked just fine until last night (October 17, 2025), sometime around 5pm. I had been running the version of the script below to back-fill our existing school database, which had been calling this API every 45 seconds for a couple days without any errors. OpenAI insists they have not changed anything on their end, and zoho insists the same on theirs. Any help would be appreciated.
