Keep getting `Error 422` upon setting switch state

[Ostromogilski]

Describe the bug For some unknown for me reason, I'm keeping to receive Error 422 sending POST request to SmartThings API to start my vacuum cleaner. I tried the same request in Postman and it works as expected. But once I put the request into plugin config I get Error occurred setting state of switch: HTTP request returned with error code 422 upon triggering the switch

Version (output of npm list -g homebridge homebridge-http-switch)

• homebridge: 1.6.0
• homebridge-http-switch: 0.5.36

Additional context

I would greatly appreciate any advise on this matter.

Postman request with the same body works as expected:

[Ostromogilski]

it seems that plugin is adding \ for every line break, that doesn't work with SmartThings API:

{\"commands\":[{\"component\":\"main\",\"capability\":\"robotCleanerCleaningMode\",\"command\":\"setRobotCleanerCleaningMode\",\"arguments\":[\"homing\"]}]}

Is it possible to avoid adding this behavior?

Working format should be like this:

{"commands":[{"component":"main","capability":"robotCleanerMovement","command":"setRobotCleanerMovement","arguments":["homing"]}]}
