Not able to reassign tasks during a retro

kendradixon commented 4 months ago

This user is unable to assign tasks to other active members in the meeting during a retro.

In the past 3 retros I have facilitated, I have been unable to assign tasks to people who are part of the meeting. Often the application is giving me only one person other than myself to assign a task to. This results in the tasks all being assigned to me when I am not the person who needs to work on them.

CS was unable to recreate the issue.
User confirmed he is able to see the complete list of members when he attempts to reassign from his task page.
CS asked for the dates of these retros and the browser used at the time - waiting on a response

I looked through some traces. We load the list of team members via the TaskFooterUserAssigneeMenuQuery when opening the menu. I could not see the query with the matching user id, so I assume we served stale data here.

@Dschoordsch thank you for triaging. Fascinating... I wonder how serving stale data happened? What would you recommend here – shall we prioritize this as a p2 or a p3 and try to triage it further or wait to see if it happens again?

For @kendradixon I am going to follow up internally on Slack and recommend we have the user purge app data to clear their cache...

I think this should be a p3. I'm pretty sure a refresh would fix it, but we also shouldn't serve stale data from the relay store.
