In the network tab, we get an HTTP error code as 401.

The error occurs because the issue is not editable on certain Issue-types.

ソリューション

Step 1 : Access the workflow for the issue type.

Step 2 : Verify the current status of the Jira Issue when the error is observed so that you can choose the right step property for the same.

Step 3 : In this example, we have "Approved" transition where the issue is currently in when trying to flag the issue :

• choose the step property
  
• As highlighted in the screenshot below, the property defined with jira.issue.editable to false which is prohibiting the issue from being flagged. 
  

Step 4 : Click on "Delete" next to the property.

Step 5 : Publish the draft.
