Our use case is to create an entity and also link the navigation properties present in the entity. To achieve this use case we are making use of batch request with change set where the first request in the set will create the entity and subsequent requests will add the navigation property links to created entity.We are referring the created entity via $1 (Content -Id for first batch request) while creating request urls for adding navigation property links.
Our batch request looks like below:
--batch_B1
Content-Type: multipart/mixed;boundary=changeset_CS1
--changeset_CS1
Content-Type: application/http
Content-Transfer-Encoding:binary
Content-ID: 1
POST {{WebAPIUrl}}/contacts HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/json
{"emailaddress3":"yahoo@gmail.com","lastname":"yahoo"}
--changeset_CS1
Content-Type: application/http
Content-Transfer-Encoding:binary
Content-ID: 2
POST $1/opportunity_parent_contact/$ref HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/json
{"@odata.id":"adobe3.api.crm.dynamics.com/.../opportunities(opportunityid=780e0283-5bf2-e311-945f-6c3be5a8dd64)"}
--changeset_CS1--
--batch_B1--
In this we are creating an contact entity and then adding opportunity_parent_contact navigation property link. But i am getting below exception

Can someone please help and let us know the cause of failure. Also any pointers for achieving the use case would be helpful.
Thanks
