No response from Adobe Document Generator API

I am trying to use the Document Generation API from Adobe, using a external storage (blob storage azure) I am following the guide, but am receiving no response when I post to the API

I am trying to use the Document Generation API from Adobe, which takes request body:

{
  "input": {
    "uri": "",
    "storage": "BLOB"
  },
  "output": {
    "uri": "",
    "storage": "BLOB"
  },
  "params": {
    "outputFormat": "pdf",
    "jsonDataForMerge": {
      "customerName": "Kane Miller",
      "customerVisits": 100,
      "itemsBought": [
        {
          "name": "Sprays",
          "quantity": 50,
          "amount": 100
        },
        {
          "name": "Chemicals",
          "quantity": 100,
          "amount": 200
        }
      ],
      "totalAmount": 300,
      "previousBalance": 50,
      "lastThreeBillings": [
        100,
        200,
        300
      ],
      "photograph": "data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mP88h8AAu0B9XNPCQQAAAAASUVORK5CYII="
    }
  }
}

This is the example shown by Adobe, except I have changed the storage to Blob as I am using Azure. I have made 2 blob storage containers, one contains the template in word format, and the other a blank storage for output. For the request body input, I have generated a SAS Token and URL, and put the URL in the uri request for the input. For the Output, I have generated a SAS token of the empty container, and put the URL in the uri request. When I try to post this data, It doesn't return anything. Am I understanding the input and output of the request body wrong? why am I not getting any response from the API?

Per discussion in the comments, the issue is that on a successful post to create a job, our API returns a Location header in the response that is the URL you can use to check the job status. It is expected that the body is empty as the relevant information is in the Location header.
