response text = {"errorMessages":["Enterprise Squad: Enterprise Squad is required."],"errors":{}}

Have you guys changed anything on your end? Please help.

You seem to have a required field on the issuetype you're using to create as shown by the error message. 

 "Enterprise Squad: Enterprise Squad is required."

 You should check your field configuration or workflow validator for that field.

hello @Mouses Stamboulian 

That error is not due to a change made by Atlassian.

The error message indicates that the Enterprise Squad field must be filled in when creating the issue, for the issue type you are creating in the project where you are creating it.

That requirement may have been set in the Field Configuration, or it may have been added to the Workflow as a Validator when the issue is created. In either case, that is a requirement that would have been implemented by the administrators of your Jira system.

You need to check with the administrators of the project and of your Jira system to find out why that change was made.
