Why am I getting: settings.json: parse error reading settings file?

Question

I'm trying to upload to Amazon s3 using edgee:slingshot on OSX. It appears I need to create a settings.json file and put it in the root, which I did. But, I get settings.json: parse error reading settings file. What am I doing wrong? (I did not copy/paste). Any help greatly appreciated.

settings.json

{
    "key": "myAWSAccessKeyId",
    "secret": "myAWSSecretKey",
    "bucket": "mybucketname",
    "acl": "public-read",
}

Now getting:

In JSON, unlike JavaScript, it is illegal for the last property in an object to end with a comma.

Try:

{
    "key": "myAWSAccessKeyId",
    "secret": "myAWSSecretKey",
    "bucket": "mybucketname",
    "acl": "public-read"
}
