    Please review the documentation: msdn.microsoft.com/.../mt607664.aspx

    A patch request is to update multiple properties at once in the request. A put request only updates one property.

    You can use patch even for the single property update, however by design (the name of the single property to be updated must be included in the url) put can only be used when only one property should be updated.  In my update request i forgot to parse the ...s(objectid-guid) (copy paste error from created code :-) ) in the patch url and that gave same type of error. Your respond guide me in the right direction.  Thanks.
