Description
Describe the bug
Same bug as in the PHP SDK from 2025
https://github.com/microsoftgraph/msgraph-beta-sdk-php/issues/356
from msgraph_beta import GraphServiceClient as BetaClient
from msgraph_beta.generated.models.application import Application as Application
from msgraph_beta.generated.models.on_premises_publishing import OnPremisesPublishing
from msgraph_beta.generated.models.external_authentication_type import ExternalAuthenticationType
request_body = Application(
on_premises_publishing = OnPremisesPublishing(
external_authentication_type=ExternalAuthenticationType.Passthru,
internal_url="http://localhost:65001",
external_url="https://whatever",
is_http_only_cookie_enabled=False,
is_on_prem_publishing_enabled=True,
is_persistent_cookie_enabled=False,
is_secure_cookie_enabled=False,
is_state_session_enabled=False,
is_translate_host_header_enabled=False,
is_translate_links_in_body_enabled=False,
is_backend_certificate_validation_enabled=False
),
)
from kiota_serialization_json.json_serialization_writer import JsonSerializationWriter
writer = JsonSerializationWriter()
request_body.serialize(writer)
print(writer.get_serialized_content().decode('utf-8'))
Output:
{"@odata.type": "#microsoft.graph.application", "onPremisesPublishing": {"externalAuthenticationType": "passthru", "externalUrl": "https://whatever", "internalUrl": "http://localhost:65001", "isBackendCertificateValidationEnabled": false, "isHttpOnlyCookieEnabled": false, "isOnPremPublishingEnabled": true, "isPersistentCookieEnabled": false, "isSecureCookieEnabled": false, "isStateSessionEnabled": false, "isTranslateHostHeaderEnabled": false, "isTranslateLinksInBodyEnabled": false}}
await beta_client.applications.by_application_id(app.application.id).patch(request_body) then fails with
APIError
Code: 400
message: None
error: MainError(additional_data={}, code='InvalidJson_BadRequest', details=None, inner_error=InnerError(additional_data={}, client_request_id='xxxx', date=datetime.datetime(2026, 7, 10, 8, 49, 27), odata_type=None, request_id='xxxx'), message='Valid JSON content expected.', target=None)
Expected behavior
proper error message and properly serialized data sent to the backend
How to reproduce
see above

Research direction
Start with the generated Application and OnPremisesPublishing models and the JsonSerializationWriter used in the reproduction. Run the provided serialization example and compare its onPremisesPublishing output with the additional_data workaround. Done means the SDK emits JSON accepted by the backend and the patch request no longer returns InvalidJson_BadRequest.
