LocalCifsGroupMembers "post() cannot be used when 'records' is set... Use post_collection() instead." when adding local users to a group #56
Description
Since 9.18.1.0, posting LocalCifsGroupMembers records raises an error.
As stated in the documentation, adding local users to group should succeed:
resource = LocalCifsGroupMembers(
"179d3c85-7053-11e8-b9b8-005056b41bd1",
"S-1-5-21-256008430-3394229847-3930036330-1001",
)
resource.records = [{"name": "user1"}, {"name": "user2"}]
resource.post()

It works in 9.17.1.0 but fails in 9.18.1.0
