Hi all, I try to create a post http request in a flow with a logic card but it doesn’t work. Every time I got the message “, reason: Parse Error: Invalid header value char” . ![Screenshot 2024-02-12 085624](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/1/f1ca16ea0f51017497411e8f575bd764662aebb4.jpeg) Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks Dirk ---

Try with the headers empty. ---

I did but with the same result and error, additionaly I tried “Content-Type: application/json”. When I use use a rest client like YARC I got an answer “`ok`\1\”" ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/3/f/3f15c56e562a961a788ad631dee65782a48d9d55.png) ---

Can you make a screenshot of the response headers in the YARC client? It’s difficult to say where exactly the error is coming from. Also, it looks like your custom “content-type” header isn’t actually set in YARC (if it were, I would have expected it to show up in the table where it now says “There are no headers to display”). ---

All looks okay to be honest, no idea what’s causing your problem ☹
