Did something change? I am normally expecting a JSON response that has success assigned a value of 1 or true but now it outputs nothing when I test it in command prompt. Even weirder, when I go to the official API docs here to test it out the response I get is literally "OK". That's it. Two characters, def not in JSON format. To be clear I get "OK" as the response when I click "Try It!". Take note this is not the same format as expected since the successful application/json response example that is provided looks as one would expect. (website calls it "200 - Result example" in the drop down)

However, whenever I purposely use a wrong API key I get a proper failure response that is in JSON format. Failure responses still behaves as expected on the API doc testing page too.

I want to make it clear my API key works fine. I can use it for all queries I try. Only the API Key Validate Key query is the one giving me this trouble.

Any insight on what is going on here? Why would I no longer be receiving a JSON response when it's successful using this query? Is this some new expectation, that we are to assume it's successful if said response is empty? I get I can see "HTTP/1.1 200 OK" using the verbose output but that isn't the traditional JSON format response I've come to expect.
