Triggered auto assignment to @roryabraham (Engineering), see https://stackoverflow.com/c/expensify/questions/4319 for more details.

This is happening on production too. If you rename a workspace and refresh the page, it reverts to the old name.

Going to remove the blocker label for now.

Interestingly, I'm able to reproduce this on staging but not locally. Maybe I need to update my local API...

[roryabraham]

Ok, updating the API is what was needed to reproduce this, which tells me this was broken in the back-end and needs to be internal.

Triggered auto assignment to Contributor Plus for review of internal employee PR - @thesahindia (Internal)

[roryabraham]

I don't think I'll need a C+ review here since it will be a back-end fix.

[roryabraham]

This was caused by https://github.com/Expensify/Web-Expensify/pull/36971

[roryabraham]

PR to fix it here: https://github.com/Expensify/Web-Expensify/pull/37001

[bondydaa]

I think this is already patched on https://github.com/Expensify/Web-Expensify/pull/37121/, you can test against staging it only changing the policy/workspace name will actually happen.

This issue has not been updated in over 15 days. @roryabraham, @thesahindia eroding to Monthly issue.

P.S. Is everyone reading this sure this is really a near-term priority? Be brave: if you disagree, go ahead and close it out. If someone disagrees, they'll reopen it, and if they don't: one less thing to do!

[roryabraham]

Confirmed this is fixed
