Description
if in an ansible playbook, you specify and use the URI module, and specify the body as a data format, the syntax highlighting throws an error stating 'String' expected.
This will produce an error
body_format: json
body:
dl:
table_type: dl
date: "{{ lookup('pipe', 'date -d ' + date_variance + ' +\"%Y-%m-%d\"') }}"

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported Ansible URI example in the YAML language server and inspect the syntax-highlighting or validation path that reports “String” expected. Compare the behavior with equivalent YAML body data and add a regression test for the shown playbook structure; done means valid Ansible data no longer receives a syntax error.
