[atlas] Problems trying to add a probe to a measurement

Hi Colin,

Try to submit it just either as object or list of objects (not including 
the outer "probes":). Like:

{"action":"add","requested":1,"type":"probes","value":"<p>"}

or

[{"action":"add","requested":1,"type":"probes","value":"<p>"}, 
{"action":"add"....} ]
