Issue/Introduction

While doing data modeling, after the user imports the filter, the tool throws an error.

Failed to save the current changes
404: Unable to PATCH, no Entity Exclusions exists with ID = 

When one tries again, it works. 

The only thing that has changed is we have upgraded from TDM 4.9.1 to TDM 4.10.

 

Environment

Release : 4.10

Component : Web Portal - Data Modeling

Cause

This could be due to either a network issue, or the cache in the browser is corrupted. The payload is sent from the browser to the backend (gtrep), and has most likely gotten corrupted. As a best practice, anytime you upgrade your TDM Portal release, it is recommended to have the users clear their browser cache. In the backend, we try to update the gtrep_datamodel_entity_excls that stores the exclusion/inclusion data.

Resolution

If you're able to consistently/easily reproduce, then first try clearing the browser cache. or run the browser in incognito mode. If it still throws the error, we need to try and troubleshoot the network to see if the connection is failing or timing out.
