Symptoms

ACTUAL BEHAVIOR:

Revising documents using the 'Drag and Drop' feature with the 'Upload folders and files' option selected creates duplicates instead of increasing the revision number of the documents.

Note, that when the "Upload files only" option is selected while revising the documents, the above functionality works as expected.


EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:

Revising documents using the 'Drag and Drop' feature with the 'Upload folders and files' option selected should not create duplicates and should instead increase the revision number of the documents.


The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:

1. Log in to Unifier.
2. Navigate to Project_XYZ > Documents > click on the 'Upload' icon > select multiple .dwg files (i.e. drawing files) to Drag and Drop. Observe that the .dwg files are successfully uploaded.
3. Click on the 'Upload' icon again > On the Drag and Drop page, select the 'Revise automatically if the file with same name exits' checkbox and the 'Upload folders and files' option. Now select the same .dwg files that were selected in Step 2.
4. Observe that duplicate .dwg files are created instead of the revision being updated.
