Creating objects in the REST API

Question

Hi everyone. 
 I'm having some trouble with the REST API. I'm getting an error I can't seem to figure out. When I try to create an object, no matter what exactly the type or class is, I get an 500 error with code 154 in the text and also: 'Wrong data type for property definition "Name".' 
 My input payload is as follows: 
 
 { "PropertyValues" : 
 [{ "PropertyDef" : 0 , "TypedValue" : { "DataType" : 1 , "Value" : 'test' }} 
 , 
 { "PropertyDef " : 100 , "TypedValue" :{ "DataType" : 9 , "Lookup" :{ "Item" : 0 , "Version" : - 1 }}}]} 
 
 As far as I can see the DataType : 1 is correct for Property 0, which is the built-in property Name. 
 
 Does anyone know what this might cause this?

Hey mate, 
 There is a space after propertydef in the quotations for the class section, once i removed that your call worked. 
 {
 "PropertyValues": [
 {
 "PropertyDef": 0,
 "TypedValue": {
 "DataType": 1,
 "Value": 'test'
 }
 },
 {
 "PropertyDef": 100,
 "TypedValue": {
 "DataType": 9,
 "Lookup": {
 "Item": 0,
 "Version": -1
 }
 }
 }
 ]
}
