I have a civicrm-application that gets updates trough an external rest-api call. But there's something odd happening.
Request:
```
api_key=76d9f1d3h4c87c2465a8a305b6fe&key=487e30c9219952143657f779&json={"first_name":"Sebastian","last_name":"Vyaene","birth_date":"01-01-1992","gender_id":2,"custom_5":"B380-A003-G164-W878","custom_6":null,"custom_7":null,"preferred_language":"nl_NL","phone":"0477745678","custom_8":{},"custom_18":[],"contact_type":"Individual","sequential":1,"custom_14":0,"id":420564,"custom_10":0,"api.Address.create":{"contact_id":"$value.id","street_address":" ","postal_code":"9000","city":null,"location_type_id":1,"id":396363},"api.Email.create":{"contact_id":"$value.id","email":"[email protected]","id":426290},"api.Phone.create":{"contact_id":"$value.id","phone":"0477745678","id":101260},"api.Membership.create":{"contact_id":"$value.id","membership_type_id":1,"join_date":"2017-10-16","start_date":"2017-10-16","end_date":"2018-10-16","source":{},"custom_17":"B380-A003-G164-W878","id":362337}}&entity=Contact&action=create
``` this is an create action, but there's already an id present, so there should be an update. But as you can see in the response, the id is ignored and another contact is created, what is not the behaviour we want.
Response:
```

Request Id: 420564 Response Id: 481202
I've looked at the call for hours and i can't find the problem. Anyone else who can help?
I'm currently on 4.6.36 and drupal 7.59. But as a test i upgraded to 5.2.1 and the same problem occures.
