  • Having an issue with the Create ZIp.  It is not adding all the documents to the zip file.  If I have 8 or less I get all of them, but as the number increases the number of files in the zip file does not equal.  For example if I have 10 documents, I get the first 8, at 15 I get the first 10, at 20, I get the first 13.

    Hi  ,

    Thanks for reaching out,
    This occurs when you have duplicate (same document repeated) documents in the list of input documents.
    While making a zip file the duplicates are removed so that the file count seems to be reduced.

    Thanks,
