Error on creating Chat card message from example

I'm trying to create a card to use in a Google Chat message.

I've pasted the JSON example from the Google Chat reference in the Card Builder , but on running it in the builder, I get an `Unknown field in Card JSON` error.

What could be the cause?

if you put only code inside "card" it work.

Try this

{
"header": {
"title": "Sasha",
"subtitle": "Software Engineer",
"imageUrl":
"https://developers.google.com/chat/images/quickstart-app-avatar.png",
"imageType": "CIRCLE",
"imageAltText": "Avatar for Sasha",
},
"sections": [
{
"header": "Contact Info",
"collapsible": true,
"uncollapsibleWidgetsCount": 1,
"widgets": [
{
"decoratedText": {
"startIcon": {
"knownIcon": "EMAIL"
},
"text": "sasha@example.com"
}
},
{
"decoratedText": {
"startIcon": {
"knownIcon": "PERSON"
},
"text": "<font color=\"#80e27e\">Online</font>"
}
},
{
"decoratedText": {
"startIcon": {
"knownIcon": "PHONE"
},
"text": "+1 (555) 555-1234"
}
},
{
"buttonList": {
"buttons": [
{
"text": "Share",
"onClick": {
"openLink": {
"url": "https://example.com/share"
}
}
},
{
"text": "Edit",
"onClick": {
"action": {
"function": "goToView",
"parameters": [
{
"key": "viewType",
"value": "EDIT"
}
]
}
}
}
]
}
}
]
}
]
}
