.net core - Could not find member '@odata.type' on object of type 'TeamMemberSettings'

Question

I am using the example from docs to add a team to existing 365 group.

the line:

            await graphClient.Groups[GroupID].Team
            .Request()
            .PutAsync(team);

Shows an error that does not make sense to me.

System.Private.CoreLib: Exception while executing function: Function1. Microsoft.Graph.Core: Code: InvalidRequest [10/16/2019 7:49:36 PM] Message: Could not find member '@odata.type' on object of type 'TeamMemberSettings'. Path 'memberSettings['@odata.type']', line 1, position 66.,Could not find member '@odata.type' on object of type 'TeamMessagingSettings'. Path 'messagingSettings['@odata.type']', line 1, position 205.,Could not find member '@odata.type' on object of type 'TeamFunSettings'. Path 'funSettings['@odata.type']', line 1, position 329.,Could not find member '@odata.type' on object of type 'Team'. Path '['@odata.type']', line 1, position 384.

I had this done before in a console application and it worked. Does it have anything to do with the fact that it is an Azure function or that it is .NET core 2.2?

Thanks for any help.

The issue is that we started setting odata.type on all models. The type is correctly set, it is just that the service isn't ignoring the value as should be expected. This is a service issue that was exposed by a change in the client library. The client workaround is to set the odatatype property to null when creating the Teams objects.

Team newTeam = new Team()
{
    GuestSettings = new TeamGuestSettings
    {
        AllowCreateUpdateChannels = false,
        AllowDeleteChannels = false,
        ODataType = null
    },
    MemberSettings = new TeamMemberSettings
    {
        AllowCreateUpdateChannels = false,
        ODataType = null
    },
    MessagingSettings = new TeamMessagingSettings
    {
        AllowUserEditMessages = true,
        AllowUserDeleteMessages = true,
        ODataType = null
    },
    FunSettings = new TeamFunSettings
    {
        AllowGiphy = true,
        GiphyContentRating = GiphyRatingType.Strict,
        ODataType = null
    },
    ODataType = null
};
