CosmosDB Container without PartitionKey

I'm using Azure Cosmos DB .NET SDK Version 3.0 and I want to create container programmatically without partition key. Is it possible? I always got error saying Value cannot be null. Parameter name: partitionKey

I use method CosmosContainers.CreateContainerIfNotExistsAsync

Try to deserialize the dll source code and find the detailed logical code.

It seems we can't cross this judgement so far because cosmos db team is planning to deprecate ability to create non-partitioned containers, as they do not allow you to scale elastically.（Mentioned in my previous case:Is it still a good idea to create comos db collection without partition key?）

But you still could create non-partitioned containers with DocumentDB .net package or REST API.
