The input provided for this request is not valid for this endpoint

This thread is in relation to this ticket: https://github.com/sasjs/adapter/issues/829

Looking for support here whilst we figure out the root cause (maybe someone is already aware).  It looks like something has changed recently on Viya 4 when it comes to running code in an existing session.

This is the request / response (running SASjs CLI with verbose mode):

Checking the API docs the example body does appear to be different however it does not correspond to the referred JobRequest schema.

Does anyone have any working examples, or can see what is wrong with our payload?  It has worked fine for several years until now..

@YuryShkoda found the issue

Seems the "arguments" attribute is no longer supported on the compute API side

We use it as our payload is also used for executing Jobs as well as arbitrary code.  Solution is simply to remove that object from the request Body.
