Incidents are being created without Short Description field?

[The Matrix]

Hi All,

We have encountered the issue in our system, that incidents are being created without Short Description field as it is a mandatory field. Has anybody encountered such a scenario before? Could someone please help me in understanding the root cause and workaround for this issue?

Thanks

@The Matrix 

you need to replicate this issue and then debug.

did you check how that INC was created? from inbound email, from portal, from workspace or from native?

Hi @The Matrix ,

For this there may be reason like session idle/session expire this is documented.

Bypassing the UI validation those record are getting created by API/integration, flows.

Check the incident creation logs are who is creating such incident, I doubt from integration probably.

Refer the below:

Incident form validation issue allows ticket to get submitted without values in mandatory fields 

Incident submitted without filling mandatory fields
