I suggest to open a support case at Appian.

I am not sure about the previous document Id and how to handle it. For the the future document uploads, how about you name the document with your records unique id or a combination of User-ID and Record timestamp and call the document by its Name? Not sure if I understood your question properly. please ignore if this doesn't sound relevant.

Thanks a lot for your response. We do consider the utility process but not exactly as you've described. The problems is with the files that we will upload in the future in new environment not with the files from the source environment. Basically we need to adjust a sequence of document ids systemically or through the process.

There might be some file in the configuration that can help you achieve it but honestly not a big fan of this method. Why not create a utility process on the source environment that can store all the documents in a constant and then you deploy this constant to the target and run a utility to update the document IDs in the DB? Or any similar method with which you can just update the document IDs? Or you can also use uuid and get documentId from it.
