Hi Kuladip,

Thanks for your reply. I have tried the option still getting the same error.  Any other suggestion please ?

Based on the error "No Content", i guess the file test.json contents are not readable, can you put the file contents as a json string in the body and see if it works, at least that will help you narrow down the problem.
