> h2. Description
> [According to our
> documentation|https://solr.apache.org/guide/solr/latest/configuration-guide/configsets-api.html#configsets-create],
> when creating a new configset with the v2 APi, the base configset field
> {{baseConfigset}} is optional and defaults to {{{}_default{}}}. This raises
> two issues:
> * When the configset {{_default}} is not available (users are able to remove
> and not create it at all), it cannot be used as the default value
> * When no {{baseConfigset}} is provided, it defaults to {{null}} and the
> request fails, as {{null}} is not allowed
> h2. Expected Behavior
> The {{baseConfigset}} is truly optional and can be omitted in the request
> body.
> h2. Actual Behavior
> The {{baseConfigset}} field is mandatory and cannot be omitted.
> h2. Additional Information
> Please not that in theory it is possible to create a configset from scratch
> and not use a {{baseConfigset}} at all. If the {{baseConfigset}} is omitted
> and we set the value to {{_default}} this is no longer possible.
> Additionally, when using a {{baseConfigset}} the new configset is not updated
> when its {{baseConfigset}} is updated (no linking exists, base configset is
> just cloned). This may however be an expected behavior and may require
> clarification in documentation.
> Another discovery is that when the user deletes all configsets, this endpoint
> can no longer be used as it is right now, because without being able to
> select a base configset (no configset available) this endpoint fails. The
> user has to upload a configset as zip to workaround this issue.
