I tried to create topic with tags, got 500 internal server error,  
there’s no permission issue, I can create topic without tags via API and create topic with those tags on the web application.  
is anything I missed here?  
edit: re-upload the screenshot

Your api key and username are still readable, please invalidate that key ASAP.

Because it is not entirely black.  
With a little editing you can easily read it

NoMethodError showed in the log.  
solve it by using `"tags[]": ["test1","test2"]`  
thanks everyone who replied.
