I am trying to insert new values to an existing picklist field on a custom object via Tooling API. GET works fine but Patch is throwing an error on JSON parsing. I am trying this on workbench before converting to apex.
/services/data/v48.0/tooling/sobjects/CustomField/00N3K000000Mb4F
This is the request payload:

The error I keep getting is:

I am not sure what am I doing wrong here. It works fine for Global picklist value set.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
