POST projects in Toggl through API

Question

I'm developing an API to integrate the Knack with Toggl. So, I need to post some data in the Toggl using an API that will be running in Google Script (JavaScript).

When I try to post somes projects in the Toggl, I receive the following error: "Request failed for https://www.toggl.com/api/v8/projects returned code 400. Truncated server response: Project can't be blank (use muteHttpExceptions option to examine full response) (line 61, file "")"

My source code is:

function sendDataToToggl(){
   var apiToken = '936e292eaccd99b40358edea25452880';  
   var unamepass = apiToken + ":api_token"; 
   var digest = Utilities.base64Encode(unamepass);
   var digestfull = "Basic " + digest;
   var url = "https://www.toggl.com/api/v8/projects";
   var data = {"project":{"name":"An awesome project","wid":1034130,"template_id":1793088,"is_private":true,"cid":123397}};
   var options = { 
                   "Content-Type": "application/json",
                   "method": "post",
                   "headers": {"Authorization": digestfull},
                   "payload": data
                   //"muteHttpExceptions": true 
                 };
   var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options);
}

Change options:

Content-Type to contentType - https://developers.google.com/apps-script/reference/url-fetch/url-fetch-app
"payload": data to "payload": JSON.stringify(data) - will generate JSON string as payload.

Also, as you publicly posted your API key, you might want to get a new one.
