{"error":{"code":"UnknownError","message":"","innerError":{"date":"2024-04-24T06:28:55","request-id":"32796f0f-298c-4e8a-ada1-6e85cd1ca336","client-request-id":"32796f0f-298c-4e8a-ada1-6e85cd1ca336"}}}

Hi @jamesderaja zoho

The $select query parameter can only be used in GET requests to return specific user object parameters. POST requests are usually used to create user objects and do not support the $select query parameter.

Hope this helps.
