Python: Update Summary Fields example misleading

[aricke42]

With Python SDK, attempting to update Summary Fields on a sheet:
https://smartsheet-platform.github.io/api-docs/?python#update-summary-fields

I cannot get the example to execute:
summary_field1 = smartsheet.models.SummaryField() summary_field1.type = ColumnType.TEXT_NUMBER summary_field1.object_value = smartsheet.models.StringObjectValue('Sally Smart') summary_field1.index = 2 summary_field1.title = 'Author'

I find that I must do:
summary_field1.type = "TEXT_NUMBER" Removing ColumnType reference

No amount of fiddling will allow the object_value attribute to be assigned any objects:
summary_field1.object_value = smartsheet.models.StringObjectValue('Sally Smart')

I have to directly assign the value summary_field1.object_value = "Sally Smart"

In cases of simple numbers or string, it's not clear that one even needed to use the object_value attribute and not the display_value attribute.

I am unclear what one will need to do when required to update a field type such as Contact that requires the object_value.
