Hello,
I have been receiving this error when trying to use POST method in my SAP Gateway Client for PROJECT_API_V3. It has been saying that the WBS element that I want to create already exists and no matter what naming I used or check if it existed in the system, but I don't see any data or WBS element with the same name. The POST method for creating Project details seem working fine with no issues but when creating WBS Element it will keep giving the same error.
Below is an example of HTTP request payload that I used, I have tried using the full version with all the attributes, but it still gives the same error.
