What happened?

So i have a Halo quick action wich does nothing else than triggering a runbook.

So my payload in the browser is :

[{"ticket_id":"77635","outcome_id":89,"_forcereassign":true,"_includeticketinresponse":true,"timetaken":0.002831111111111111}]

When i strip down the payload i only need ticked_id and outcome_id to get it working via "manual" posting to the endpoint.

This is what i tried:

            $actionTarget = @{
                ticket_id = $($ticketInfo.faultid)
                outcome_id = 87
            }
            
            $result = New-HaloAction -Action $actionTarget -Debug

            # Results in BadRequest 400
            # DEBUG: Query string collection not present...
            # DEBUG: Request body:
            # [
            #   {
            #     "outcome_id": 87,
            #     "_forcereassign": true,
            #     "ticket_id": 77635
            #   }
            # ]
            # DEBUG: Raw ErrorDetails:
            # Line | ... \Modules\HaloAPI\1.22.1\Public\New\New-HaloAction.ps1:23:9
            #   23 |          New-HaloError -ErrorRecord $_
            #      |          ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
            #      | Response status code does not indicate success: 400 (Bad Request).

The weird thing is when i use the same payload with the 'Invoke-HaloRequest' method, it works just fine.

 $RequestParams = @{
                Method = 'POST'
                Uri = 'https://' + $myHalo + ':443/api/actions'
                Body = $actionTarget | ConvertTo-Json -AsArray
            }
            
            $response =  Invoke-HaloRequest -WebRequestParams $RequestParams -RawResult

So i use the 'Invoke-HaloRequest' way, which is working for me now, but i dont get why it does not work with New-HaloAction
