Hello Amity,

We tryied to create a post object via rest API directly with specify postId and targetType content  
here is the example of our post request.

we get the error response like this

Please give us solution. the idea is that we don’t want to create targetType user which is the default if we don’t pass this parameter since the post might interfere with the user feed.

Thank you in advance
