User PUT issue

 

Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong here? According to the docs (
https://docs.dhis2.org/2.29/en/developer/html/dhis2_developer_manual_full.html#webapi_users_create_update)
this should work to update a user's account:

curl -X PUT -u "admin:district" -d @u.json -H "Content-Type:
application/json" https://play.dhis2.org/2.26/api/26/users/DXyJmlo9rge

In this case I am using {"firstName":"ATEST"} as the u.json file.
Unfortunately I keep receiving errors such as:

"Missing required property `surname`."

If I send a more complete user object it complains that I am missing the
userCredentials.username property. When I add that, it complains that user
already exists.
