Issue with multiple attachments through JSON REST API

Description
Hi,
I've tried to use REST API for creating issues but found that there no way to post multiple attachments via JSON - it works for single attachment only!
When I post an "upload" JSON data as array (with brackets '[]') under "uploads" node, redmine API successfully creates an issue but without attachments - it simple ignores it. It works only if I put a single attachment straight under "uploads" section, without using an array format ('[]').
Could you post the JSON you post to create the issue with multiple attachments?
Works fine for me with current trunk with:
{
"issue": {
"project_id": "1",
"tracker_id": "1",
"subject": "Test issue",
"uploads": [
{"token": "12035.d595398bbb104ed3bba0eed666785cc6", "filename": "test1.gif"},
{"token": "12036.d595398bbb104ed3bba0eed666785cc6", "filename": "test2.gif"}
]
}
}
Thank you for reply! Can't check it right now, will check in a few hours later. The only difference I can see for now - you are not using "upload" node as it states documentation here:
[[http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/Rest_api#Attaching-files]]
I.e.
"uploads": [
"upload": { "token .... }
"upload": { "token .... }
]
Is it difference for XML and JSON? Or it just docs not so updated?
UPDATE: Now I see - it's my fault. Didn't think too much about difference between arrays in XML and JSON :) Sorry about that, you can close the issue.

Thanks for the feedback, I've added an example to the API guide.
