octokit.rest.teams.create seems to ignore parent_team_id parameter

Hi, I'm lost in a twisty maze of github repos, all slightly different so I'm not sure where's the best place to ask this or file an issue. But anyway, I'm using Octokit with a GitHub app and when I try to create a team with the octokit.rest.teams.create method in the organization it works fine but totally ignores the parent_team_id parameter. I can create the team and then update it with octokit.rest.teams.updateInOrg and set the parent that way but I'm wondering if I'm doing something else wrong. My call to create looks like:

octokit.rest.teams.create({
      org: this.org,
      name: name,
      description: description,
      privacy: 'closed',
      parent_team_id: parent_team_id,
});

If there's a better place to ask about this, please point me in the right direction.

can you try the following please

1. Run the code you shared but with an .endpoint suffix and log out the request parameters
2. Try to reproduce the problem with the given request options using curl or another tool to send requests

const requestOptions = octokit.rest.teams.create.endpoint({
      org: this.org,
      name: name,
      description: description,
      privacy: 'closed',
      parent_team_id: parent_team_id,
});

console.log(requestOptions)

I think it's most likely a bug in your code (parent_team_id is undefined or invalid) or in GitHub's API.

I'm sad to say you're probably right that it must have been a bug in my code. Because in the course of making a stripped down program to demonstrate the endpoint thing I got to something that works. Unfortunately I didn't commit all my previous non-working versions so I can't figure out what I did wrong before. Anyway, thanks for the answer. And that .endpoint trick is cool so at least I learned something. Cheers!
