Hi there,

I tried to create a link in the description of an item:

 

where the URL is a Codebeamer item (e.g. https://test-codebeamer.mycompany.local/cb/issue/69545) then it first looks fine:

… but after saving it is destroyed:

(Note: from now on the link cannot be edited anymore)

What is the issue?

There are two main possible reasons as to why the link is no longer available:

  1. The work item was deleted
  2. The work item changed to a state where you no longer have access to view it.

As for not being able to edit it, it looks like you are not in the current head branch as there is an UPDATED flag below the name. Only items in the head branch can be edited.

Neither nor - the item exists and I do have access, i.e. I can see it.

The UPDATE flag is because I added the link at the description of the item.

NOTE: I added the link to the item, which is in a Stream. The link target is an item in the same tracker in the same Stream. I noticed, that it seems to work if I do the same in the Initial Stream.

Would you be able to provide a project export?
