Hi @Hostvisors ,
Your API has a typo on the user set:

'name': 'estuser@gmail.com' instead it should be 'name': 'testuser@gmail.com'

The first "t" is missing

Hi White,

Thank you for reaching out to Atlassian Community!
Sometimes this issue maybe related to permission, so let's check this information first.
Have you checked if the customer is showing correctly on Administration > Jira Service Desk?
Have you tried to add this customer as reporter directly on the instance (agent view)?
Can you test creating the ticket on behalf of the customer in the customer portal?
Also, check on Jira settings > System > Global permissions if the Browse users and groups has all the necessary groups, for example:

• site-admin
• jira-users
• jira-software-users
• jira-administrators
• jira-servicedesk-users
• administrators
• atlassian-admins-admin.

Regards,
Angélica
