   I reproduced this on bugzilla-dev. The issue comes from the webhook BMO sends when a needinfo is set at bug creation: the payload doesn't include the new flag.

   Here is the webhook we received (trimmed):

   {
     "bug": {
       "id": 1855653,
       "is_private": false,
       "flags": []
     },
     "event": {
       "action": "modify",
       "routing_key": "bug.modify:flag.needinfo",
       "target": "bug",
       "changes": [
         {
           "field": "flag.needinfo",
           "added": "? (hackbot@mozilla.tld)",
           "removed": ""
         }
       ]
     }
   }

   event.changes has the needinfo request, but bug.flags is empty. Our code needs that list to get the needinfo flag ID:

   bugbug/services/hackbot-api/app/bugzilla_webhook.py

   Lines 53 to 65 in 16c75e9

   	matching_flags = [
   	flag
   	for flag in bug["flags"]
   	if flag["name"] == "needinfo"
   	and flag["value"] == "?"
   	and "requestee" in flag
   	and flag["requestee"]["login"] == bot_login
   	]
   	if not matching_flags:
   	return None
   	# BMO returns flags ordered by ID, so a newly requested needinfo is the
   	# last matching flag in the webhook's current bug snapshot.
   	flag_id = matching_flags[-1]["id"]

   With no matching flag, the nd is ignored
