@4000000057a9752608f192dc Detail: Key (ID)=(1) is still referenced from table "AO_54307E_GROUPTOREQUESTTYPE".
Cause
A customer portal with that project key was created before. A Jira Service Management project is deleted after deactivation of Jira Service Management will not delete the customer portal from the database. JSD-4147 - Getting issue details... STATUS
Diagnosis
Check the customer portal contains this project name with the following query:
select * from "AO_54307E_VIEWPORT" where "KEY" like '%project_name%';
Workaround
It is not recommended to remove the existing customer portal from the database because the table is linked to other tables. If we removed the existing customer portal manually, it could cause inconsistency between the tables.
Use a different case order as it is case sensitive.
For example, 'desk' was used by existing customer portal, you could name your new SD project name as 'DESK' or 'Desk'.
