Triggered auto assignment to @CortneyOfstad (Bug), see https://stackoverflow.com/c/expensify/questions/14418 for more details. Please add this bug to a GH project, as outlined in the SO.

We think that this bug might be related to #wave-collect - Release 1

@CortneyOfstad FYI I haven't added the External label as I wasn't 100% sure about this issue. Please take a look and add the label if you agree it's a bug and can be handled by external contributors

BE is returning errorFields: not found

This is a backend issue. OpenReport API returns no reports, instead returns not found error.

@CortneyOfstad

@CortneyOfstad Whoops! This issue is 2 days overdue. Let's get this updated quick!

Sorry for the delay here! This was assigned after I went OoO, but reviewing everything now!

@FitseTLT

Thanks @FitseTLT and @kpadmanabhan for confirming it is a BE issue and @Shahidullah-Muffakir for testing this further! Going to do some testing and see if I can recreate and get some eyes on this!

@FitseTLT

I was not able to recreate this as it brought me right to the announce room. @FitseTLT @kpadmanabhan or @Shahidullah-Muffakir — are any of you consistently able to recreate?

Yep but you should try to open it before adding members to freshly created workspace and it will open the announce room but after a while it will change to not here page. This should definitely be fixed @CortneyOfstad

@CortneyOfstad this issue was created 2 weeks ago. Are we close to a solution? Let's make sure we're treating this as a top priority. Don't hesitate to create a thread in #expensify-open-source to align faster in real time. Thanks!

@CortneyOfstad Whoops! This issue is 2 days overdue. Let's get this updated quick!

@FitseTLT

Thanks @FitseTLT and sorry for the delay here as I was OoO part of last week. I've pinged the team directly and will update as soon as I hear back. Thanks!

Unfortunately, no takers yet here. Will continue to monitor

Bumped the thread

I can look into this. Investigating what the intended behavior should be.

We delay creating the announce room until the policy has 3 members. Code where this happens in the backend here. PR that introduced this behavior 7 months ago here. Seems like a reasonable thing to me, though it did cause this bug.

This issue is essentially a duplicate of #34929, which already has a PR out to fix this.

Closing.
