    @Vinod A Hi Vinod,

    I'm not sure but I'm wondering if this error is being thrown up because the return is not necessarily going to be JSON in the response, and I am wondering if this is why the error is occurring.

    On sending the request from an ExtractRaw a 200 OK return should return JSON, with JobId and Notes, however should there be a 202 Accepted instead I believe the response header 'Location' with a full url needs to be 'monitored' as separate GET request until the, also see the below URL for more detail (DSS or Tick History credentials required)
