Your problem is in your YAML syntax not this action.

: isn't normally something you need to worry about in YAML but : followed by a space becomes a key separator. You need to escape the space, for example in your script you need to escape the content type but with the data you can just remove the spaces.

args: -vvf -uxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -H "Content-Type:\ application/json" -X POST https://api.bintray.com/packages/chiju/rpms/openssh/versions --data '{"name":"7.6", "github_use_tag_release_notes":false }'

Try a YAML parser to find issues in future and read this StackOverflow post if you want more info.

This thing works like a charm for me
