I'm using Shopify's official API client (@shopify/shopify-api) for node.
My system has its own inventory management system and I want it to behave as a master control thus I want to set an available amount at the inventory level via API. For that, I'm using `inventory_levels/set` endpoint on that client with post request and my JSON body looks like the following.
{
inventory_item_id: 45197411975402,
location_id: 70109757674,
available: 177
}
Now when I'm trying to send a request to Shopify, I'm receiving the following error.
HttpResponseError: Received an error response (400 Bad Request) from Shopify:
{
"inventory_item_id": "Required parameter missing or invalid"
}

I did try a few suggested solutions for similar issues (giving content type to application/json, verifying ids, etc) and it seems that none of those worked
Update - I've tested the same with Postman and I can very well confirm that it works fine in Postman. But if I change Content-Type header to something else than application/json then I receive the same error.
Now I really really believe that Node client's post method should be doing this automatically for sure but for some reason if it doesn't do that, I can see a property named extraHeaders. I've used it something like below since there is literally not a single example on how to utilize that property. The error is still the same so can anyone point out what I'm doing wrong?
extraHeaders: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
}
