(Csharp 3.1) - Json serialization error in lookerClient.me()

See original GitHub issue

We call the following function: SdkResponse<User, Exception> userResponse = await lookerClient.me();

This used to work for us for the past 2-3 weeks, but suddenly started breaking on 8/24 around 6pm PST. We get the below error in both cshard SDK versions 3.1 and 4.0.

A variant of this functional test would be a good place to start with debugging this

Ok. I’ll have to look into the fields not being limited. (Look# is currently an experimental prototype, so it’s not officially supported yet.)

Just to eliminate variables and clarify the conversation: when you use API 4.0 and request the original user’s me() it still results in a deserialization error?
