Error parsing JSON when executing gettxoutproof

[Shawshank]

This might be something simple, but I can't find what I am doing wrong. I have txindex active and the txid 01500dcfab73c06ae62ac75d8abb1c5a5537dbd12dc04a10da23ca1a712c416b does not belong to my wallet.

When I execute this on Bitcoin Core console:

Code:

gettxoutproof ["01500dcfab73c06ae62ac75d8abb1c5a5537dbd12dc04a10da23ca1a712c416b"]

I receive the following message:
Error: Error parsing JSON:[01500dcfab73c06ae62ac75d8abb1c5a5537dbd12dc04a10da23ca1a712c416b]

What am I doing wrong?

You need to put single quotes around the brackets for the JSON to be parsed properly. You command should be

Code:

gettxoutproof '["01500dcfab73c06ae62ac75d8abb1c5a5537dbd12dc04a10da23ca1a712c416b"]'
