Whenever a default is set on an enum parameter it becomes impossible to send another version than the default.

The default value is always sent in the query string

Whenever you omit the default tag the request is fine

I wouldn’t dig too much into it. If the fix is there, it’ll roll into the editor in this week’s release because there’s definitely going to be one.

Yes, this look fine to me. The dropdown selects the default at first, and the right value appears in the query when I submit the request. I tried both with and without the required keyword and with default values that are not in the enum.
