Xray issue: Cannot create new Xray Test issue when specifying a test repository path

I use Rest API for handling the creation of new Xray Test Issues in Jira.

I can successfully create an issue, and set various fields on the Xray Test Issue -  as long as I do not try to set the "Test Repository Path" field.

Creating the issue without setting the field makes the Xray Test Issue end up in the Orphan folder, as expected.

If I try to set this field when creating a new issue, I get the error:

"we can't create this issue for you right now, it could be due to unsupported content you've entered into one or more of the issue fields. If this situation persists, contact your administrator as they'll be able to access more specific information in the log file."

If I try to change this field on an existing issue (which is in the Orphan folder), I get the same error.

If I try to change this field on an existing issue (which is NOT in the Orphan folder), it succeeds.

So for me, this sounds to be a genuine bug in Xray?
Can somebody please confirm?
Can somebody possible provide a work around.?

Creating an issue and setting the "Test Repository Path" field has indeed worked previously.

Any feedback appreciated!
