Adding an Element to package "Invalid Type" error

[Stenvang]

I'm trying to add an Element to a newly created package from code.

My code is as following and it breaks at the Element AddNew and throws an error saying "Invalid Type".

                    packageName = "Requirements";
                    Package requirementPackage = parentpackage.Packages.AddNew(packageName, "Package");
                    requirementPackage.Update();

                    if (requirementPackage != null)
                    {
                        foreach (string elementName in ElementList)
                        {
                            Element myElement = requirementPackage.Elements.AddNew(elementName, "Element"); //Breaks here
                            myElement.Update();
                        }
                    }

Creating the package is no problem but that other error doesn't make sense to me.
Have I misunderstood something?

"Element" is not a valid Element type.
Check the documentation on EA.Element. There a complete list of all accepted element types.
