[bug]: Inline work item creation shows generic error when title exceeds 255 characters

[Arjun-singh-rawatt]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Current behavior

Expected: Descriptive validation message (e.g. "Title must be under 255 characters") — same as the sidebar/modal creation flow
Actual: Generic text— "Some error occurred. Please try again."
Note: The sidebar work item creation correctly shows a descriptive error for the same input. This is an inconsistency between two creation code paths.

Steps to reproduce

1. Go to Work Items list view (Not inside sidebar)
2. Click + New work item (inline input, not modal)
3. Paste a 256+ character string into the title field
4. Press Enter

I'd like to work on this. Let me know if this is something worth addressing.

Could you let us know if you're on the Community Edition? Also, could you share a full screenshot of the error? We tried reproducing it on our end but couldn't. That will help us look into it further.

I'm using the hosted Cloud version (app.plane.so) with a Business trial, not the Community Edition.

here the full-screen screenshot of the error.

Thanks for the screenshots, Arjun. We have now identified the issue. We will inform the team and get this fixed.
