Error when creating a user {"odata.error":{"code":"Request_BadRequest"

Question

I am trying to create an Azure Active Directory User using ADAL and I get this error:

{"odata.error":{"code":"Request_BadRequest","message":{"lang":"en","value":"Property  value is required but is empty or missing."},"values":null}}

Stack trace:

My code is mainly a copy paste from this sample:

https://github.com/AzureADSamples/WebApp-GraphAPI-DotNet/blob/master/WebAppGraphAPI/Controllers/UsersController.cs

I tried setting the language by code:

user.PreferredLanguage= "en"

but that didnt make any difference, the error doesn't say which property must be set.

Answer 1

After several tries I noticed I was missing the property AccountEnabled to be set, weird that the message is not clear enough, it should say which property value is missing
