## Ticket creation fails when request includes escape characters (`\\`)

Ticket creation fails because the request includes escape characters (`\\`). The system produces the following error message:

```text
Ticket creation failed. com.google.gson.stream.MalformedJsonException: Invalid escape sequence at line 3 column 49 path $.description
```

**Resolution**: Update the value of the **description** attribute by using `StringEscapeUtils` string in the [Ticket Creation](<https://documentation.sailpoint.com/connectors/service_desk_integrations/atlassian_jira_cloud/help/configuring.html#ticket-creation>) section as shown below:

```text
#if($request.operation == 'Create') Create Account on application $request.resource #else For $request.id in application $request.resource #end #if ($request.items) $newline  #foreach ($item in $request.items) #if ($item.name == '*disabled*' && $item.value == 'true') Disable Account. $newline #elseif ($item.name == '*disabled*' && $item.value == 'false') Enable Account. $newline #elseif ($item.name == '*locked*' && $item.value == 'false') Unlock Account. $newline #else $!item.Operation $item.name: $StringEscapeUtils.escapeJava($StringEscapeUtils.escapeJava($item.value.toString())) $newline #end #end #else $newline $!request.Operation Account #end
```

## Status Mapping is not defined

The following error message appears if the provisioning status map is not defined:

```text
InvalidConfigurationException ] [ Error details ] SailPoint Identity Platform provisioning status is not defined against the IT Service Management status 'Resolved' in the check status configuration 'statusMap' for the 'serviceRequest' ticket type.
```

**Resolution**: Ensure that you configure the mapping of ticket statuses.

## A message appears when a user who is not a Jira member tries to create a ticket

The following error message appears when a user who is not a Jira member tries to create a ticket:

```text
{"errorMessage":"Your request could not be created. Please check the fields have been correctly filled in. is not a valid email address","i18nErrorMessage": {"i18nKey":"sd.validation.request.creation.failure.required.field","parameters": [" is not a valid email address"]}
```

**Resolution**: Ensure that the user requesting the ticket is present on the Atlassian Cloud Jira Service Management System.

## Create Ticket / Check Status failed with 403 unauthorized error

The following error message appears when the user tries to create a ticket or check the status:

```text
403 Forbidden with {"error": "invalid_grant", "error_description": "Unknown or invalid refresh token."
```

This error occurs due to the rotating refresh tokens supported by the managed system. Few scenarios where the refresh token can get invalidated are:

- **Client timeout:** The Jira Service Management Integration requested a new access token using a refresh token, but the request gets invalidated because of the client timeouts or loss of a new refresh token. The service desk connector is unable to make the further request as the old token also gets invalidated.
- **Multiple client applications:** Multiple client applications using the same system at the same time during the testing phase.

**Resolution**: To resolve the issue you must regenerate the refresh token manually using the authorization\_code method. Update the application with the new refresh token.
