I'm investigating an issue with WPAllImport plugin and the issue seems to be related to Wordpress core function term_exists . I think I'm passing the right arguments but not getting the expected response.
I attached an image showing the get_term working fine showing all the details to this term.. while the term_exists passing the exact data where it should (by parent) returns null:

I looked around similar tickets but most are passing incorrect arguments unlike this case. Does anyone know if this is an issue with Wordpress or am I doing something incorrectly?
Thanks in advance.
