Chris,

thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I've found the
specs in API 2.2 section 5.1. The specs also list the condition

"The content type is application/x-www-form-urlencoded"

Our forms currently do not contain this MIME type spec.
Can you elaborate a bit why this MIME type is required?
