Proximity Beacon API Register EID-Frame

I'm currently working with the Google Proximity Beacon API, especially with the EID-Frame. I was able to register an eid-frame by taking the type "EDDYSTONE", but it is saved with the beacon id "beacons/3!beaconid".

The API-Reference clearly says that the type of the AdvertisedId should contain the type "EDDYSTONE_EID" (see here). Sadly, requests with this type get a error response (see picture).

So if I want to resolve an eid, I should search for a beacon with a beacon-id like "beacons/4!beaconId(eid)" (see here). Since I wasn't able to register it with the eid type, how will I be able to resolve it?

For more information feel free to comment. All information in the request are pseudo values, except the service_ecdh_puplic_key.

Actually when you register a beacon using EID, it will be saved in your google dashboard and the beacon will be recognized by "beacons/3!...".

But if you want to get the info of this beacon, you may use "beacons/4!+EID" then google resolver will return the beacon that you expect.

When registering an Eddystone-EID, the AdvertisedId field should be a valid Eddystone-UID. See here: https://developers.google.com/beacons/proximity/register#register_an_eddystone-eid_beacon

This UID forms the beaconName, once your EID is registered.
