Description

If you send a GET request to the /job_templates_scheduling endpoint, what you get back is always YAML, even if you specifically request JSON:

[adamw@adam openQA (master %)]$ http --json get https://openqa.fedoraproject.org/api/v1/job_templates_scheduling/1
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
...
Content-Type: text/yaml;charset=UTF-8
...

defaults:
  arm:
    machine: ARM
    priority: 50
  x86_64:
    machine: 64bit
    priority: 50

Per the docs, with http --json "The Content-Type and Accept headers are set to application/json (if not specified)."

A server should not really return YAML when the client states that it accepts (only) JSON, I don't think. It's also somewhat surprising behaviour in general for an API that has always returned JSON for everything to suddenly start returning YAML for some specific thing.
