Structure Definition expects String in StructureDefinition->ElementDefinition->Type->Profile but there will be a list

Screenshot from FHIR-Website: Element Definition

As the FHIR website suggests there can be multiple values (a list) in this field. FHIR Client gives me an exception, stating that it is expecting a string for this field.

Error Message:

Wrong type <class 'list'> for property "profile" on <class 'fhirclient.models.elementdefinition.ElementDefinitionType'>, expecting <class 'str'>

Thanks for the report!

I'm not sure what the state of things was in April 2021, but in the current release (and in main), the profile field is a string, but marked as is_list (the True right after the str).

So this should be working today at least. If it still isn't working for you, please re-open.
