Audience: Everyone

Environmental details: Self-hosted and Cloud-hosted customers

Summary:

The GET /abstractitems endpoint is returning a deleted item. You will find that you cannot navigate to the deleted item.

Additionally, when you try to pass in the received ID of the deleted item into other API requests, such as GET /items/{id}/attachments, you will receive a 404 error response.

Solution:

Perform a project reindex on the deleted item project.

Cause:

Sometimes, project indexes get out of sync due to field configuration changes, extensive batch updates, API updates, and other functions. When this happens, you need to re-index your project items.
