The Dataupload's API endpoint /io streams file(s) directly to the workspace. We have detected that premature file pickups may occur and attempt to move/delete files while content is still being appended or processed. We have taken actions to reduce this behaviour by decreasing the frequency for file pickup which in turn does lower the chance for premature pick. We have also implemented gpg error validation to check integrity based on its messages. Note: Files are picked from the workspaces for processing every 10 minutes. And file will only picked up if it is not updated for 5 mins. Some key messages:
