curl api.github.com publish release JSON issue

So essentialy, the github api tells me my JSON is incorrect.

{
    "tag_name":"v1.1.32-3",
    "target_commitish":"develop",
    "name":"v1.1.32-3",
    "body":"Checkout the latest commit for details!",
    "draft":false,
    "prerelease":true
}

I've run that through a JSON verifier and it says the JSON is valid. I've looked at; How to create and publish a Release using GitHub API v3 with curl?

I'm using 

curl -H "Authorization: token blah" 
     -H "Content-Type: application/json"
     -H "Accept: application/vnd.github.v3+json"
     https://api.github.com/repos/$username/$projectName/releases
     -d '(JSON ABOVE)'

And no matter how I change the JSON, I cannot seem to change the response from github. I'm using this to automate some publishing and I've gone through about 60 iterations of trying to get this to work without any sucess with this command.

I created the OAUTH token I'm using here: https://github.com/settings/tokens

Out of exasperation I gave the OAUTH token I'm using every permission available except for the PGP permissions.

Here is the CURL version for the first machine I tried this on:

curl 7.52.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.52.1 OpenSSL/1.0.2l zlib/1.2.8 libidn2/0.16 libpsl/0.17.0 (+libidn2/0.16) libssh2/1.7.0 nghttp2/1.18.1 librtmp/2.3

My use case was using this to automate some release stuff with Jenkins, Since I spent about 6 hours with CURL and couldn't get it to work, I managed to install https://github.com/aktau/github-release and it works perfectly. I'm going to go ahead and mark this as solved...
