UE4 Blueprint - Setting player statistics (Server side)

Using the UE4 Blueprint SDK I am trying to update the player's wins and score. I've been able to GET player / title data with no issues so far. However, within blueprints it is a bit confusing on how to set player data / statistics.

First, I am using server-side logic to detect when a player wins or requires their score to be updated at the end of a match. So the server is the only one changing this value and the noted "allow players to change statistics" or I believe even CloudScript should not be needed.

From the server I am using the UpdatePlayerStatistic node (server api), I have the PlayFabId required but I cannot seem to figure out how to create the 'Statistics JSON Request' array that should contain the appropriate fields.

In addition, my closest guess so far is to set the field somehow before attempting to run "UpdatePlayerStatistic". However, this causes the UE4 engine to crash.
