API 2.0: Unable to set ownerId on Tasks endpoint with POST or PATCH calls

Issue Summary

Unable to set ownerId on Tasks endpoint with POST or PATCH calls
Currently, these are the responses:

HTTP 400
Cannot create task. ownerId doesn't belong to the same team as storyId

HTTP 400
Cannot update task with id <id>. ownerId doesn't belong to the same team as storyId

Steps to Reproduce

Validated the following scenarios via UI:

Scenario: Story has NO related Agile team

Method #1 – Add via Quick Add section within Story slide-out panel

Task Owner can be selected among the team members of the following teams: any teams related to the Program (the Program team itself + any other Agile or Kanban team)

Method #2 – Via Task grid page

Same as above + the current user

Scenario: Story HAS one related Agile team

Method #1 – via Quick Add section within Story slide-out panel

^{same as previous scenario} Task Owner can be selected among the team members of the following teams: any teams related to the Program (the Program team itself + any other Agile or Kanban team)

Method #2 – Via Task grid page

Once Story is selected, Task Owner can be selected among the associated Agile team members + the current user ^{notice Program team members are no longer allowed as explicit Agile team has been assigned}

Expected Results

• API should mirror the minimum validation presented in the UI.

  The Task Owner must be a member of Program Team or Agile Team associated to the respective Story.

  The relationship chain is like:

  • Program (Program Team) >> Agile Team >> Story >> Task

  Program	Agile Team	Story	Task

  So before trying to select an Owner for a Task you must validate that user's membership to some of those teams.

Actual Results

• API returns 40x:

  HTTP 400
  Cannot create task. ownerId doesn't belong to the same team as storyId

  HTTP 400
  Cannot update task with id <id>. ownerId doesn't belong to the same team as storyId

Workaround

Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available.
