GET with a (JSON) payload is against the RFC; a GET with a payload has =
no defined semantics: =
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7231#section-4.3.1

That being said, =E2=80=9Edata=E2=80=9C is appended to the URL as query =
parameters, the content type is ignored and the JSON strings will appear =
(encoded) in the URL.

I would suggest to switch to POST here =E2=80=A6 if you insist on GET, =
you need to correctly encode the json into a query parameter.
