FIrst snippet for index creation does not work

Type of issue

Code doesn't work

Description

I copied both the Hotel java model

public static class Hotel {
    @SimpleField(isKey = true, isFilterable = true, isSortable = true)
    private String id;
    @SearchableField(isFilterable = true, isSortable = true)
    private String name;

    public String getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public Hotel setId(String id) {
        this.id = id;
        return this;
    }

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public Hotel setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
        return this;
    }
}

and the snippet for index creation

List<SearchField> searchFields = SearchIndexClient.buildSearchFields(Hotel.class, null);
SEARCH_INDEX_CLIENT.createIndex(new SearchIndex("index", searchFields));

However, when creating the index using the snippet, I got the following exception

Status code 400, "{"error":{"code":"OperationNotAllowed","message":"The request is invalid. Details: index : Found 0 key fields in index 'hotels'. Each index must have exactly one key field.","details":[{"code":"MissingKeyField","message":"Found 0 key fields in index 'hotels'. Each index must have exactly one key field. Parameters: index"}]}}"

Indeed, the 'id' field, although if annotated properly, was not enabled as key field. In addition, the 'static' qualifier should be removed from the Hotel class definition
