@Sharizan Mohd Redzuan Thanks for raising - the TimeSeriesWrite should not have the instance ID field at all. It was actually added to it before it was decided that time series in Data Modeling had to be created through the DMS API.

I will add a proper error message and remove the field in the next major version. Again, thanks for raising! 🙏
