Square brackets misinterpreted in post params?

[trey-k]

I have something set up like below but no matter what you do I get an unhandled error that says nothing specific about an [object Array]. If you remove the brackets from the string it works fine, escaping them doesn't seem to help, any ideas?

const params = {
  name: '[🔴 LIVE] name',
  description: 'new bio'
}

client.post('account/update_profile', params) {
  .then(function (data) {
    //do whatever
  })
  .catch(function (error) {
    throw error
  })
