workspace: Not the correct type

I'm trying to create a new task via the api.

The call is:

curl -u my_token: https://app.asana.com/api/1.0/tasks -d "name=demo_task" -d "workspace=875236917006"

and this is the response:

{"errors":[{"message":"workspace: Not the correct type"}]}

Where I'm wrong?

    The ID you've provided for a workspace does not refer to a workspace, it refers to something else. Perhaps you're passing it a project ID instead?

    Try running curl -u my_token: https://app.asana.com/api/1.0/workspaces which will give you a list of all the workspaces you are in. The ID you pass in must be one of those.
