When I delete a column with the name "cut" and want to make a new one with the name "cut" it doesn't work and gives me an error:

"Error creating the column

Problems with the connection have occurred."

But there's no problem with the servers so it must be a bug?

Hi @Jan Landert,

It may be an indexing issue - some operations in take some time to be processed and synced completely in the cloud. I would give it some time, optionally use an alternative column title for your column and try to rename it a bit later.

If the problem persists, it would be best to reach out to Atlassian support (if you are on a paid plan).

Hope this helps!
