Hello @zatroa and welcome to our community.

To ensure a certain level of data integrity, all data passed through the Rest API is compared with a [validation schema](https://docs.python-cerberus.org/en/stable/). Therefore, all necessary properties must be passed along.

See: [API request examples](https://community.datagerry.com/t/api-request-examples/381)
