PATCH does not update birthday of contact

Question

When we create a contact record with a POST request the birth date is set, but when we try to update it with a PATCH request we receive a 406 error. Does anybody knows a solution?

Hi @MelleBoudewijns-1749

Thank you for reaching out!

I am unable to reproduce this behavior. I'm able to create and further update birthday property of a contact record successfully.

Generally 406 error signifies "This service doesn’t support the format requested in the Accept header". Please ensure that you are using right content-type. i.e., For PATCH request, you need to add Accept application/json in header.

Hope this helps.

I tested it in more detail and found that it was actually an issue in an other field (emailadress) that caused the problem. I did not see that the email addresses were sent too.
