I have a question regarding POST /rest/api/3/issue endpoint to create issues.
In the past, when non-existing component, fix or affects version was provided in fields, endpoint returned an error, for example:
"Component name 'New_Component' is not valid";
At the moment, this validation seems to be removed for components field. Value for components field is added to Jira, and then the issue is created and API returns a success response. However, this validation still exists for fix/affects version field (which is also creatable on Jira screen, just like components) and creating an issue with new value still returns an error. I find it inconsistent and wanted to ask if you are also planning to remove validation for fix/affects version field?
Best regards,
