How Creates a child managed topic by name for a community?

Hello,
I want to include parent and children topics in my Community like this : https://releasenotes.docs.salesforce.com/en-us/winter16/release-notes/rn_networks_subtopics.htm?edition=&impact=

I used ConnectApi.ChatterGroups.createManagedTopicByName(communityId, name, managedTopicType, parentId)
communityId=my CommunityID ('0DBM0000000CajLOAS')
name=name of child topic
managedTopicType = ConnectApi.ManagedTopicType.Featured
parentId = '0TOM00000004SHDOA2'  Id of parent topic

When I run this method I have this error message: ConnectApi.ConnectApiException: Illegal value for parameter: 'parentId': 0TOM00000004SHDOA2

Can you help me?

Best regards
Anis

When I've seen that error in the past - the value you are passing for the ParentId is not a valid Id.  Are you 100% sure that the 0TO Id is proper and correct?

I think that the parentid (in ConnectApi.ChatterGroups.createManagedTopicByName(communityId, name, managedTopicType, parentId)) must be a topic, so I put the id of the parent topic ''0TOM00000004SHDOA2''. no?

Too late for answer but you are passing Topic ID '0TOM00000004SHDOA2' this is a ID from Topic Object.
The method is waiting for a ManagedTopic Record, The managed Topic ID is like  ' 0mt1....'
