Hello!
Did you tried with other content types (other available json content-types)? Maybe you could also try with text/html or text/plain content-types?

My requirement is to use application/json, and there is no problem in 24.9.3.I also tested with text/html and text/plain, and there is a problem.

👋 I'd like to revive this issue !

Indeed, if you pass a badly formatted JSON, the request will be processed but no error will be returned, which is confusing.

Example:

{
    "id": 123,
}

A JSON parser would return :

Error: Parse error on line 2:
{    "id": 123,}
---------------^
Expecting 'STRING', got '}'

But no error is indicated. IMO, hoppscotch should indicate that the JSON is incorrectly formatted, like what Bruno does

Thanks ✨
