500: JsonError { info: "decoding models: JsonError" }

[13806]

I'm getting "500: JsonError { info: "decoding models: JsonError" }" when I try to import genanki-generated decks into Anki versions past 2.1.4*

I've been using genanki without issue for the past 2 years to generate decks, the issue only came up recently when I tried to update Anki to 23 (same problem on windows and mac).

To add - the error appears when upgrading to 2.1.9 from previous version and in all subsequent versions.

The same. Have you solved this issue?

I was not able to reproduce this issue on Anki 23.12.1 Qt (the latest version) on macOS. Can you please post your Anki version (go to the About Anki screen and click Copy Debug info and paste it here), your genanki version, and a minimal reproducible example of the Python code that generates a problematic deck?

I encountered the same error when I forgot to supply a name to my model, maybe this was the issue here as well.
