Parse Error during insert event in google calendar api - parse-error

Question

I've a json object below and passed it as urlParameter
{
"end": {
"dateTime": "2017-10-09T13:30:00",
"timeZone": "America/Denver"
},
"start": {
"dateTime": "2017-10-09T12:00:00",
"timeZone": "America/Denver"
},
"description": "Added through API",
"summary": "Lecture on Global Warming",
"location": "Denver"
}
I've also set the Content-Type as application/json. But I get the error as
{
"error":
{
"errors": [ {
"domain": "global",
"reason": "parseError",
"message": "Parse Error" } ],
"code": 400,
"message": "Parse Error"
}
}
When I send the same request through Try this API its working fine. Please Help!!!

If you're going to do that in actual coding, use 'apostrophes' and not "double quotes" like what's indicated in the Events.insert sample :
var event = {
'summary': 'Google I/O 2015',
'location': '800 Howard St., San Francisco, CA 94103',
'description': 'A chance to hear more about Google\'s developer products.',
'start': {
'dateTime': '2015-05-28T09:00:00-07:00',
'timeZone': 'America/Los_Angeles',
},
'end': {
'dateTime': '2015-05-28T17:00:00-07:00',
'timeZone': 'America/Los_Angeles',
},
'recurrence': [
'RRULE:FREQ=DAILY;COUNT=2'
],
'attendees': [
{'email': 'lpage#example.com'},
{'email': 'sbrin#example.com'},
],
'reminders': {
'useDefault': false,
'overrides': [
{'method': 'email', 'minutes': 24 * 60},
{'method': 'popup', 'minutes': 10},
],
},
};
