How to add users in azure devops through Postman REST API

Question

I'm using collections (not organization) in azure devops and trying to add users in teams (under project settings) through Postman REST API.

I can retrieve teams details using PAT auth:

GET https://devops.company.com/tfs/COL/_apis/projects/My-WORK/teams?api-version=6.0

Success Response:

{
    "value": [
        {
            "id": "01xxccrayr-a443-600d-db0d-12435",
            "name": "MY-WORK Team",
            "url": "",
            "description": "team description",
            "identityUrl": "xxxx",
            "projectName": "MY-WORK",
            "projectId": "8540tuyfred-qawsd-fre432-fre3-57wedsa1546thyf"
        }
    ],
    "count": 1
}

but unable to add users into specific teams through Postman:

PUT https://devops.company.com/tfs/COL/_apis/GroupEntitlements/{teamID}/members/{memberId}?api-version=6.0

e.g. PUT https://devops.company.com/tfs/COL/_apis/GroupEntitlements/01xxccrayr-a443-600d-db0d-12435/members/anyemailid@not.com?api-version=6.0

Error Response:

<head>
    <title>Page not found. - Azure DevOps Server</title>
    <style type="text/css">

Also, I tried below urls but didn't work:

You can use Members – Add to add users to a team in Azure DevOps

You can use below method to add users to a team:

PUT https://vsaex.dev.azure.com/{organization}/_apis/GroupEntitlements/{groupId}/members/{memberId}?api-version=6.0-preview.1

Because teams are also considered as groups in Azure DevOps
