I'm getting a similar issue but it's been set to false!
The terminal displays that it is set to false and then comes through with the error as stated above.

}

In our case we can also see in the Browserstack log when the build starts that the local capability is set to false by default

@ernestosolis-discovery I understand that you are getting an error message related to local testing even when you are not setting the local testing capabilities under the connection_settings section in the browserstack.json file. For further investigation, please share the complete content of your browserstack.json file. Also, if possible, reach out to us via our Contact Us Page.

@dwhyteSA @droca
Seems is working again, I don't get the 422 error, in case you want to retry.
tested with browserstack-cypress-cli versions:

• 1.26.0
• 1.25.3

Can confirm on my end that it's working as expected! Thanks @ernestosolis-discovery & @abhimanyukoul 😄
