[Pdns-users] "HTTP/1.1 422 Unprocessable Entity" when creating a zone

I did it exactly as in PowerDNS README: 
https://doc.powerdns.com/md/httpapi/README/

Does it mean README is buggy?

But it also fails without "masters" attribute:

# echo '{"name":"example.org.", "kind": "Native", "nameservers": 
["ns1.example.org.", "ns2.example.org."]}' | jq
{
   "name": "example.org.",
   "kind": "Native",
   "nameservers": [
     "ns1.example.org.",
     "ns2.example.org."
   ]
}
