| Description |
|---|
On a group assignment using assignment enhancements, if a file is added to the submission and the file is deleted or replaced, the submission fails with "Error sending submission" and trying to add a new file to the submission results in an error of "Error updating submission draft"
| Expected Behavior |
|---|
-
Instead if a file is deleted or replaced, the file should be removed from the assignment submission draft.
-
or the group files folder should be locked like user file submissions, so they can't be edited after being uploaded.
| Workaround |
|---|
Submitting through the API when this is happening will still work. (This includes the mobile app)
| Steps to Reproduce |
|---|
-
Prerequisite: Published course with a student in a group and assignment enhancements enabled.
-
Create a group file upload assignment.
-
As the student, upload a file to the submission draft of the assignment.
-
Navigate to the group files, then under the “unfiled” folder, re-upload the file and choose to replace the current file.
-
Navigate back to the submission draft, attempt to submit or upload another file and notice that you receive an error.
