[ARCHIVED] Create User Error - Canvas Live API, Resource does not exist

[7a09s8d7f098a7s]

I went to MyInstitution.instructure.com/doc/api/live and under the Users sections I attempted to create a user, but I got the following error:

{ "errors": [ { "message": "The specified resource does not exist." } ] }

Request URL: https://MyInstitutation.instructure.com:443/api/v1/accounts/9999/users 

I specified the parameters: name, short name, sortable name, pseudonym, send confirmation.

The issue was the account id property is not a new id that will be assigned to the user, it is the id of the organization account.
