Meaning

Same family as TS2740 (single missing property). Supply the property, mark it optional, or use a utility type for partial shapes. React props: pass all required props or make them optional in the props interface.

Common causes

  • Required property not provided
  • React component missing a required prop
  • Model changed with a new required field
  • Partial form data typed as full model
  • Wrong type annotation

⚡ Quick fix

  1. Add the property or make it optional (email?: string)
  2. Create a props/DTO type matching reality
  3. Use Partial/Pick

Detailed fix by platform

TypeScript

  1. interface Props { title: string; subtitle?: string }

How to diagnose

  1. Property — Missing which?
  2. Props — Required?
  3. Type — Right?
