The documentation has an error. The example JSON string has descriptions as a String, but should be an array of Strings as explained in the documentation above.

So documentation needs to be updated.

@josauder please update the e-Publishing documentation. Change the JSON metadata example. I tested it and it works. @andish can you please check if this solves your problem?
