Batch 400 Status Code: "failed to parse request: expected value at line 1 column 1"

[gaelph]

Version

3.12.7

Steps to Reproduce

1. Trigger any event
2. Wait for a request to /batch to be sent

Expected Result

A successful call with a 200 status code.

Actual Result

The request to the /batch route consistently fails with a 400 HTTP status code. The body of the response is always the plain text string: "failed to parse request: expected value at line 1 column 1". This fails to be parsed as JSON and no explicit error shows up in the logs. No events are shown in Activity feed on website.

The SDK is configured as follow:

let config = PostHogConfig(
    apiKey: Constants.PosthogKey,
    host: "https://\(Constants.PosthogHost)"
)
config.debug = true
PostHogSDK.shared.setup(config)

where the PosthogHost is either eu.i.posthog.com or eu.posthog.com with the same result.

Logs in XCode look as follow:

[PostHog] Queued event 'Application Opened'. Depth: 14

I am aware of a previous similar issue (https://github.com/PostHog/posthog-ios/issues/103), however the date sent_at seems to be formatted correctly, so I am assuming this is a different issue.

@gaelph host should be https://eu.i.posthog.com for EU. I wonder if it's your network or something, is this on an emulator only or on a real device? I just tested this on an emulator and everything worked fine. Double check if Constants.PosthogKey and Constants.PosthogHost are correct?
