The request failed. Error code: 'InvalidRequestContent'. Error Message: 'The request content was invalid and could not be deserialized: 'Required property 'assignedTo' expects a value but got null. Path 'steps[0]', line 1, position 118.'.'.

    The error indicates that the assigned to field is required, and it is null. This is causing the error. You should check to make sure that the assigned to field is populated.
