Error TF51635 Occurred while trying to create workitem batch

When I try to create work items trough batch create operation I am getting below Error

TF51635: There are duplicate temp IDs in the Update XML.\\r\\nParameter name: workItemUpdates\

There is no much information available in web regarding this error.below link contains TFS errors and codes , But I couldn't find detailed information about same. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa337645(v=vs.80).aspx

As per my research this issue could associate with Id notation in batch (error occurred When I tried to create several workitems without Id in batch).Can you explain bit about below notation (I am referring to https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/docs/integrate/api/wit/batch)

      {
        "op": "add",
        "path": "/id",
        "value": "-1"
      }
  1. Is it compulsory to define ID ? .
  2. how to determine Id (which id should use first / get last id of previous workitem)?
  3. Is it possible to assign auto increment number for this?

Even though haven't found some related official documentation. This ID seems to use for defining the order of the multiple work items in json content. For example: If the last id of previous workitem is 289, then the ID of work item with -1 will be 290, -2 will be 291 ...and so on. This opinion is based on some tests.

1. Is it compulsory to define ID ?

Yes, you have to define this ID, if you don't, you will get error.

2. how to determine Id (which id should use first / get last id of previous workitem)?

You don't have to get the last id of previous workitem TFS will automatically detect it. This could be confirmed, when you create a single work item, you don't have to do this.

3. Is it possible to assign auto increment number for this?

Seems not.
