Problem with IFTTT/Maker - won't turn on scene

EDIT- This is solved. Turned out I had a “fancy” quote mark in the json payload…how do these things even happen, lol?

I set up a IFTTT recipe to turn on a scene called ‘bedtime’ via Google Assistant/Maker that makes a call like this:

https://example.duckdns.org:8123/api/services/scene/turn_on?api_password=password
POST
application/json
{"entity_id":"scene.bedtime”}

It worked great. I tried to setup a second recipe just like the first with a different scene ‘good_night’ but it fails every time. I get this message from the Maker channel in IFTTT: “an error with Maker prevented your Applet from working”. I tried a bunch of things like renaming the command words, changing the name of the scene, creating a new scene. I even duplicated the first applet by having it execute the same scene that works perfectly in the first one. Nothing works. Essentially, I can’t get a second Applet to work.

In home assistant logs, I’m seeing this error every time it tries to run:

Any ideas?
