strange behavior in 17.1 when I upload document using a!fileUploadField()

Per appian documentation, I thought that was expected. Uploads via a!fileUploadfield() are given a temprary docId until the form the function is on is submitted.

Hi Anna,
Could you open a support case in regards to this behavior? We'd like to look into it more in depth.

Anna, I tried the same thing on a 17.1 Appian cloud env. But it is working as expected

Attach the SAIL code, mention if you were uploading in Temporary docs folder and whether it was on-premise/cloud version and also the browser.

Agree with reginaldm377.
Have a look at the Notes section in the below link
docs.appian.com/.../File_Upload_Component.html

This is not about the temporary docId and permanent docId.. The OP knows that the docId before submitting the form is temporary, and only after submitting the form it is actually assigned a permanent docID.
The OP observed that the docId of other documents are getting changed when a new document is uploaded via SAIL form. Anna was able to show it to me and I too was surprised.. maybe its a genuine bug or maybe he is doing something wrong but it was surprising.

The described issue happens only when I test the interface in /design. It works properly when I used it in task form.
I attached one doc, its doc id was 3330 but it get changed to 3332 when I tested the interface and uploaded a another doc while testing.
Please find attached screen shots.

whenever I test the interface and upload new document in target folder then the doc ids are get changed for all document which are their in that target folder.

Anna, this is not happening on 17.1 cloud. However, your screenshot is surprising. The docId has indeed changed and the "Last Modified time" has also changed and yet its not a new version..

Can you please paste your code for a!fileUploadField() component. What have you used as a target in this component btw?
