Error creating contacts (HubSpot.NET) - Property \"properties\" does not exist

[WernerD]

Have there been any changes in Hubspot-ContactApi since November 2019?

I try to upload contacts by use of the HubSpot.NET - wrapper (actual download from https://github.com/hubspot-net/HubSpot.NET), but this doesn't work for me.

First I had several mismatches with custom properties and could fix them, but I can't locate the last problem "Property \"properties\" does not exist" (see exception below).

When I try to run the code-example from the library which is very simple,  I still get the same error. There seems to be some trouble with the return properties-structure ... but I can't get it.

This is the example-code:

/**
* Create a contact
*/
var contact = api.Contact.Create(new ContactHubSpotModel()
{
Email = "another@person.com",
FirstName = "John",
LastName = "Smith",
Phone = "00000 000000",
Company = "Oliver & Co"
});

HubSpot.NET.Core.HubSpotException
HResult=0x80131500

Hi @WernerD,

Taking a look at this wrapper, I can see that this is not an official HubSpot wrapper and so is something we do not directly support. 

With that said, taking a look into the response, it appears our API is unable to identify the properties being passed as they are not in a "properties" parameter as outlined in our documentation, here: https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/methods/contacts/create_contact

I'd recommend attempting to alter how the payload is being passed to ensure the properties parameter is included so that our API can properly process the incoming data. 

I hope this helps!
