I have been trying to pass this data in json format but i keep getting this error. I am getting all the data and passing it to a payment getaway for processing. But anytime I pass the data i get the error message. Below is the trace message i am getting.

Tried dumping your data and it gave me the error "name email is not defined". Changing it to some string solves the issue. So most probably it is an auto import or something else.
