How to return JSON "true" in Python

I have a simple python code that returns a JSON object with one boolean fields and two others. The goal is to get the following response

{
    "prop": "foo",
    "name": "bar",
    "isSomething": true
}

I need a valid JSON true, but the python response gives me a JSON string "true".

{
    "prop": "foo",
    "name": "bar",
    "isSomething": "true"
}

My Python code is:

import json
x = { 
        'prop' : 'foo',
        'name': 'bar',
        'isSomething': json.dumps(True)
    }  
return x

I am executing this code using Python 3.7.

You should json.dumps the entire x object:

import json
x = { 
        'prop' : 'foo',
        'name': 'bar',
        'isSomething': True
    }  
return json.dumps(x)
