David,
There are 2 different flavors of snapshots that GS exposes - one is to snapshot the game config (cloud code, properties, etc) and the other is to snapshot the screens/snippets that are found under the 'Manage' screen. You are creating a 'Manage' snapshot.
The config snapshot url is https://config2.gamesparks.net/restv2/game/{0}/admin/snapshots
while the manage snapshot url is:
https://config2.gamesparks.net/restv2/game/{0}/manage/snapshots/
See:
https://docs.gamesparks.com/documentation/manage/creating-and-managing-screen-snapshots.html
https://docs.gamesparks.com/api-documentation/rest-apis/game-admin.html#/snapshots
vs

best of luck!!

Hello! I'm trying to use the REST APIs to automate managing my game, and am running into a very odd problem.
Here's a snippet showing what would appear to be a successful API call to createSnapshot:
POST /restv2/game/[REDACTED]/manage/snapshots HTTP/1.1 Host: config2.gamesparks.net Accept: application/json Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8 Content-Length: 25 X-GSAccessToken: [REDACTED] Connection: keep-alive {"description":"Wobble"} HTTP/1.1 201 Created X-GS-RID: B9104DF9696125BD2059AD382C0D44282D40 Content-Type: application/json;charset=utf-8 Connection: close Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=15768000 Set-Cookie: mesosphere_server_id=f6d1c94f0e; path=/ {"id":"59ad383046e0fb0001bb5a4f","date":1504524336113,"description":"Wobble","published":false}As you can see, I seem to have succeeded, I get the 201 HTTP status code that should indicate a successful request. However, the snapshot doesn't appear in the list of snapshots associated with my game on the GameSparks Portal, and I attempts to GET /restv2/game/[REDACTED]/admin/snapshots/[value of "id" field in response] with suitable "X-GSAccessToken" return a 404 status.
What in the world is going on? This is very confusing.
