Describe the Bug

Related to following discussion: #7185

I want ot create an item, let's say activity with a related activitytype via GraphQL API.

GraphQL throws Validation Exception becaus of missing create_activitytype_input fields (e.g. name). The activitytype with id 1 has allready been created and the request should use update_activitytype_input instead (mentioned by rijkvanzanten).

To Reproduce

POST /graphql

mutation {
    create_activity_item(
        data: {
            start: "2021-08-04T07:06:10Z"
            time: "00:01:11"
            calculatedpoints: 0
            activitytype: {
              id: 1
            } 
        },
    )     
}
