This would indicate the partial connection dict you're sending to NetworkManager as part of the AddAndActivateConnection call doesn't have all the required properties. What NM needs here is either the object path to an existing AP that it can pull the SSID and security settings from, or you need to specify those manually (which you must do here because you're doing a hotspot). Apparently it's not getting that from the D-Bus method call, or there's a bug in the code...
