var contentType = new ContentType
{
  Id = "<content_type_id>",
  Name = new Dictionary<CultureInfo, string> { { culture, "<content_type_name>" } },
  Fields = new List <ContentTypeField> 
  {
    new(
      "title",
      new Dictionary <CultureInfo, string>
      {
        { culture, "Title" } 
      }),
    new(
      "related",
      new Dictionary <CultureInfo, string>
      {
        { culture, "Related" }
      },
      FieldType.Reference)
  }
};

var newContentType = await _client.ContentTypes.CreateAsync(contentType);

// Update an existing content type
newContentType.Fields.Add(
  new ContentTypeField("body",
    new Dictionary <CultureInfo, string> { { culture, "Body" } },
    FieldType.LongText));

await _client.ContentTypes.UpdateAsync(newContentType);

// Delete a content type
await _client.ContentTypes.DeleteAsync(newContentType.Id);

RequestResponse

      "title", new ShortTextField("Hello, world!")
    }
  }
