Thanks for the report.

@saltstack/team-core Can you take a look at this issue, I have not been able to replicate it.

Thanks.

[sorenhuus]

I am a Windows tech and very new to Salt, so it is completely plausible that it is something very basic I am doing wrong.

[sorenhuus]

If someone can show me a successful API call with a fiddler dump. I can attempt to recreate that.

Switching to cherrypy from Tornado fixed it.
