Release logs indicate successful tagging of tickets in Jira, but tag not showing up on ticket in Jira

[raygpt]

command: npm run semantic-release --no-ci

release.config.js:

const verifyConditions = [
  ['@semantic-release/changelog', releaseNotesGeneratorOptions],
  ["semantic-release-jira-releases", {
    "projectId": "XXXX",
    "releaseNameTemplate": "v${version}",
    "jiraHost": "xxxx.atlassian.net",
    "ticketRegex": "[A-Z]{2,6}-\d{1,5}"
  }],
  [
    '@semantic-release/git',
    {
      assets: ['package.json', 'CHANGELOG.md'],
      message: 'chore(release): ${nextRelease.version} \n\n${nextRelease.notes}'
    }
  ],
  [
    '@semantic-release/gitlab',
    {
      gitlabUrl,
      assets
    }
  ]
]

const success = [
  ["semantic-release-jira-releases", {
    "projectId": "XXXX",
    "releaseNameTemplate": "v${version}",
    "jiraHost": "xxxx.atlassian.net",
    "ticketRegex": "[A-Z]{2,6}-\d{1,5}"
  }]
]

logs:

Can't find terminal history, but something along the lines of "Found ticket, Looking for release with same name, Created new release, Tagged ticket"

But going to the ticket in Jira shows no tag.

My JIRA_AUTH is set to username:jira-api-key-base64.

Edit:

I see the release was created in JIRA but it has no issues tagged in it, even though the commits were made on a fresh repo using commitizen with JIRA rules and definitely tagged the issue in each commit.
