      Description

      We currently say that parameters to an action are passed in the body of a json request as a json object where each parameter is a property of the object.

      I recently had someone ask how they should invoke an action request with no (non-binding) parameters. In particular, they were wondering if they should just pass no content (as opposed to content containing an empty json object).
