I am working on a watcher that create watcher depending an index. I use for that a weebhook call in the watcher.

Problem:  
the webhook call need the use of """ for the body part:

```auto
      "webhook": {
        "scheme": "https",
        "host": "xxxx",
        "port": xxxx,
        "method": "put",
        "path": "_watcher/watch/{{ctx.payload._source.watchername}}",
        "params": {},
        "headers": {},
        "body" : """ xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx """"      
       }
    }
  }

```

The problem is that in the body send to the weebhook I also have a body with a sequence of """:

```auto

      "webhook": {
        "scheme": "https",
        "host": "xxxx",
        "port": xxxx,
        "method": "put",
        "path": "_watcher/watch/{{ctx.payload._source.watchername}}",
        "params": {},
        "headers": {},
        "body" : """ xxxx {body : """ zzzzzz """ } """"      
       }
    }
  }

```

Well, of course the """ inside the second body interfer with the first one...

check in the forum, in the language ref, I haven't been able to find any solution.

Escaping the " in the second body cal, using \"\"\" does not work. I tried using ', or `, it did not work either.

As anybody a solution for that?
