If I downgrade back, I get the above error so I'm kinda stuck here. Looking at a similar issue reported here, I guess fix to the above migration issue is to delete the postgres database? (to be fair I didn't backup a snapshot of database as the docs suggested) Would like some guidance on how that's done

Edit: Nvm, I think I found how to delete the database by going over the uninstall Coder docs.

Got the fix by going through the release notes of each version after

2.0.2

2.0.2

. Turns out the param has been replaced with and that's what causing the issue in the API request

Issue was figured out in GH:

I see it still as template_version_id: https://github.com/coder/coder/blob/main/codersdk/organizations.go#L145-L145

The issue ran into in discord is you cannot provide both template_id and template_version_id. They are mutually exclusive. I will update the docs
