Hi @Aleb1107,

Thank you for your input!
I was trying to reproduce this error on my end but interestingly enough I’ve been able to accept your suggestion (unintentionally as I thought I’d receive an error as well). Could you please let your SM know to make any further adjustments as needed?
We’ll try to recreate this issue, however, if you come across it in the meantime, please let me know.

All the best,
Olesya

thank you. I’ll update you if it happens again.

I take this opportunity to point out another suggestion that returns an error:
The following message is immediately returned:
"Suggestion not added
Something went wrong; these suggestions could not be added.

Hi @Aleb1107,

Thank you for your response!
I’ve checked the suggestion and it seems to have been invalidated due to the fact that the existing segment had its geometry changed after you suggested connecting a new segment to it.
Perhaps you could remove this suggestion a submit a new one?

Best,
Olesya

Perhaps that “geometry change” occured on this Map Suggestion?

Hi @kodi75,

Just to clarify, can you not accept this suggestion? As far as I can tell, after the suggestion was made, there haven’t been any geometry changes to the existing segment.

Best,

No, i am not able to accept this. I’ve been in contact with the editor to check if they can think of anything they did differently than others he submitted the same day.

Hi @kodi75,

I haven’t attempted to accept it yet, as I’m trying some other flows - keeping this suggestion open is more helpful at the moment.

2 posts were merged into an existing topic: Can’t save street name suggestion - “Container has no generated ID for property streetIDs”

Thank you for this example @kodi75, this issue is likely related to this bug report - it is currently being investigated. I will move some posts from here ro the linked thread to keep all relevant information in one place.

Now, that we’ve got more examples, I attempted to accept the previous suggestion you provided and it threw an error upon trying to save it with no changes made on my end. Since the issue is related to the address, I modified these fields - entered ‘None’ in the address and city fields, and it has been added successfully. Please let me know if you have further questions.

All the best,
Olesya
