Something went wrong
We were unable to update this channel settings. If this continues, please <button> contact support <button>

Cause
This usually occurs on JSM Chat and Slack integrations when the user account that is trying to set the Request type settings is not a part of Slack, is deactivated, or doesn't have the necessary permissions on Slack team.

Access the JSM project
