Post not saving - not a valid ref name

Hello Everyone,

I am getting started with Netlify CMS and I am stuck on why my created post are not saving. I don’ see any documentation about he requirements about how collections are to be saved.

I am getting the error:

Failed to persist entry: API_ERROR: refs/heads/cms/Job Opening/test is not a valid ref name.

Here is my config.yml file:

  • There is some stuff I can’t share, so i used xxxxx to mark it off instead.

backend:
name: git-gateway
branch: main # Branch to update (optional; defaults to master)
media_folder: public/img
public_folder: img
publish_mode: editorial_workflow
display_url: xxxxxx
logo_url: xxxxxxx
collections:

  • name: “Job Opening”
    label: “Openings”
    folder: “content/_jobpostings”
    identifier_field: name
    create: true
    fields:
    • { label: “Title”, name: “title”, widget: “string” }
    • { label: “Position”, name: “position”, widget: “string” }
    • { label: “Location”, name: “location”, widget: “string” }
    • { label: “Date”, name: “date”, widget: “datetime” }
    • { label: “Description”, name: “description”, widget: “markdown” }
    • {
      label: “Remote”,
      name: “remote”,
      widget: “select”,
      options: [“yes”, “no”],
      default: [“yes”],
      }

Could you try to recreate Git Gateway, or recreate your entire Netlify Identity instance?

Furthermore, check if your repo settings in the config are correct as per the repo itself.
