Error in OneRoster assignment creation: "ExistingAssignmentMissing"

Hi all -

We're getting ExistingAssignmentMissing when trying to create some assignments through OneRoster:

{"statusInfoSet":[{"imsx_codeMajor":"failure","imsx_severity":"error","imsx_operationRefIdentifier":"putLineItem","imsx_description":"ExistingAssignmentMissing","imsx_codeMinor":"invalid_data"}]}

Does anyone know what this means?

We're trying to create an assignment, so there's no existing assignment that it would need to reference.

It uses an ID that is not among those returned by the /lineItems endpoint.

That said, it's possible that the ID was used by an old assignment that was deleted at one point.
