Your input is malformed, the value of a field needs to be inside `[]` like `["bar"]` above.
The same format as it's output.
Since that part of your json did not parse it thinks you want to query the metadata, not set
it.
Does your json library actually convert a list containing a
single value into that value not in a list and vice-versa?
