Unable to view Contents on frontend of new Content Types created via REST

    Description

      I tried creating several content types via REST, using session-based authentication, on REST Client.
      For one in specific (the simplest I could think of), I used the following REST parameters:

      Method:
      POST
      
      URL:
      http://ezp5.dev.vagrant/api/ezp/v2/content/typegroups/3/types?publish=true
      
      Headers:
      Accept:
      application/vnd.ez.api.ContentType
      
      Content-Type:
      application/vnd.ez.api.ContentTypeCreate
      
      Body:
      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
      <ContentTypeCreate>
          <identifier>rest_dummy</identifier>
          <names>
              <value languageCode="eng-GB">Rest Dummy</value>
          </names>
          <descriptions>
              <value languageCode="eng-GB">dummy rest-created content type</value>
          </descriptions>
          <remoteId>remoteId-qwert550</remoteId>
          <urlAliasSchema>&lt;name&gt;</urlAliasSchema>
          <nameSchema>&lt;title&gt;</nameSchema>
          <isContainer>false</isContainer>
          <mainLanguageCode>eng-GB</mainLanguageCode>
          <defaultAlwaysAvailable>true</defaultAlwaysAvailable>
          <defaultSortField>PATH</defaultSortField>
          <defaultSortOrder>ASC</defaultSortOrder>
          <FieldDefinitions>
              <FieldDefinition>
                  <identifier>name</identifier>
                  <fieldType>ezstring</fieldType>
                  <fieldGroup>content</fieldGroup>
                  <position>10</position>
                  <isTranslatable>true</isTranslatable>
                  <isRequired>false</isRequired>
                  <isInfoCollector>false</isInfoCollector>
                  <defaultValue></defaultValue>
                  <isSearchable>true</isSearchable>
                  <names>
                      <value languageCode="eng-GB">Name</value>
                  </names>
                  <descriptions>
                      <value languageCode="eng-GB">This is the title</value>
                  </descriptions>
              </FieldDefinition>
          </FieldDefinitions>
      </ContentTypeCreate>
      

      I noticed then that the content type was successfully created (in this case, inside default 'Media' Content Type Group).
      However I found out that even though I can create contents of this new Content Type, I cannot see them on frontend.
      Since now Legacy is gone on master, the only method we can create new Content Types is via REST or the Public API, AFAIK.
