When the JSON format fails due to the detection of malformed JSON, it means that there is an error in the structure or syntax of the JSON data. This can be caused by missing brackets, quotes, or even a misspelled keyword.

To fix the issue, one can use a tool known as a JSON linter to check for any errors in the request parameters. A linter is a program that analyzes code for potential errors and provides feedback to the user. In this case, a linter can help identify syntax errors in the JSON data and suggest corrections.

In addition, it is also important to validate the input data source and ensure that it follows the correct JSON format before parsing it. This can involve checking that the input is well-formed, is encoded correctly, and is free from any unwanted characters.

By using a combination of JSON linting and data validation techniques, developers can help prevent errors that could lead to issues such as data corruption or system downtime.
