Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

Description in workspace greyout in offline without making any changes

What is the root cause of that problem?

We are adding description in pending fields here

App/src/libs/actions/Policy/Policy.ts

Line 1632 in 9ddca5c

description: CONST.RED_BRICK_ROAD_PENDING_ACTION.ADD,

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

In the backend response, we don't receive description data when creating a workspace. Therefore, the ideal solution would be to remove this field.

App/src/libs/actions/Policy/Policy.ts

Line 1632 in 9ddca5c

description: CONST.RED_BRICK_ROAD_PENDING_ACTION.ADD,

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

If we don't want to remove this then we should also add in success data

App/src/libs/actions/Policy/Policy.ts

Line 1704 in 9ddca5c

description: null
