You can use request module to perform this action in easy way.

here is an example to insert a customer execute it

POST https://www.googleapis.com/apps/reseller/v1/customers

    Body parameter

  "kind": "reseller#customer",
  "customerId": "custId-1234",
  "customerDomain": "example.com",
  "postalAddress": {
    "kind": "customers#address",
    "contactName": "John Doe",
    "organizationName": "Example Inc",
    "postalCode": "94043",

The problem is stated in your error logs already.

reason: message: 'Invalid Value'

"auth":auth is not included in the Customers resource.

These are the valid values:

{
  "kind": "reseller#customer",
  "customerId": string,
  "customerDomain": string,
  "postalAddress": {
    "kind": "customers#address",
    "contactName": string,
    "organizationName": string,
    "locality": string,
    "region": string,
    "postalCode": string,
    "countryCode": string,
    "addressLine1": string,
    "addressLine2": string,
    "addressLine3": string
  },
  "phoneNumber": string,
  "alternateEmail": string,
  "resourceUiUrl": string,
  "customerDomainVerified": boolean
}
