Issue/Introduction

If this REST API call is executed, for example:

GET   http://<AE HOST>:8088/ae/api/v1/22/executions?include_deactivated=true&name=DUMMYJOB&alias=DUMMYALIAS&status=1900,1899&time_frame_from=2024-10-28T05:00:00Z

...it will return the following response:

{
    "total": 2,
    "data": [
        {
            "name": "DUMMYJOB",
            "type": "JOBS",
            "queue": "CLIENT_QUEUE",
            "run_id": 2802005,
            "status": 1574,
            "status_text": "Post processing",
            "activation_time": "2024-10-28T15:12:42Z",
            "start_time": "2024-10-28T15:15:08Z",
            "agent": "WIN01",
            "platform": "WINDOWS",
            "parent": 2802003,
            "reference_run_id": 0,
            "line_number": 3,
            "user": "DEV/DEV",
            "estimated_runtime": 120,
            "alias": "DUMMYALIAS",
            "activator": 2802003,
            "activator_object_type": "JOBP"
        },
        {
            "name": "DUMMYJOB",
            "type": "JOBS",
            "queue": "CLIENT_QUEUE",
            "run_id": 2802004,
            "status": 1900,
            "status_text": "ENDED_OK - ended normally",
            "runtime": 121,
            "activation_time": "2024-10-28T15:12:41Z",
            "start_time": "2024-10-28T15:13:07Z",
            "end_time": "2024-10-28T15:15:08Z",
            "agent": "WIN01",
            "platform": "WINDOWS",
            "parent": 2802003,
            "reference_run_id": 0,
            "line_number": 2,
            "user": "DEV/DEV",
            "estimated_runtime": 120,
            "alias": "DUMMY ALIAS",
            "activator": 2802003,
            "activator_object_type": "JOBP"
        }
    ],
    "hasmore": false
}

The above shows the call also returns a JOB with the status "Waiting for Predecessor" (status 1574).

Note that the filter on the Alias has no incidence on the behavior; if removed from the REST call the problem will persist.
