Getting this error when using batch_save to update kvstore through Splunk python SDK.

This works fine when posting same content through curl, not sure if some limitation through splunk SDK. Anyone have any idea on quick fix?

File "/opt/splunk/etc/apps/adp_cmdb/bin/splunklib/client.py", line 3724, in batch_save
return json.loads(self._post('batch_save', headers=KVStoreCollectionData.JSON_HEADER, body=data).body.read().decode('utf-8'))
File "/opt/splunk/etc/apps/adp_cmdb/bin/splunklib/client.py", line 3615, in _post
return self.service.post(self.path + url, owner=self.owner, app=self.app, sharing=self.sharing, **kwargs)
