Solution

How can I identify the problem?

When loading the Form, your browser's console show logs with errors "Cannot read properties of undefined."

Moreover, you can use the API endpoint Get Form to review the Form in JSON format:

  1. Search for your "Section Name" to find the section ID.

  2. Look for the section within the JSON using the ID you just found. The field "cIDs" (condition ID) of the section should be empty.

This means the section is mapped to a condition that doesn't exist, and is corrupted.

How do I fix the problem?

Please contact Atlassian Support to remove the corrupted condition.
