Incomplete image file uploads, but no errors

[identafly]

Using the CloudConsole website, we see issues uploading image assets to Vertex, to get labeled after importing. For example, we might try uploading 300 images, but only 70 are accepted.  Yet no errors or issues are reported and we get the "success" upload email.  If I try again, it repeats.  It seems to happen with specific files we upload.

We save in JPEG, nothing over 500KB size.  The file names are `hivis (1).jpg`, `hivis (2).jpg`, `hivis (3).jpg` and so on incremental.  Is there an issue with file names & parenthesis?

It's possible that the issue is related to the file names containing parentheses. Sometimes, certain systems or platforms can have trouble processing special characters in file names, leading to unexpected behavior like the one you're experiencing.

Here are a few troubleshooting steps you could try:

• Remove the parentheses and any other special characters from the file names before uploading them again. Instead of hivis (1).jpg, hivis (2).jpg, etc., try renaming them to something like hivis_1.jpg, hivis_2.jpg, etc.
• Instead of uploading 300 images at once, try uploading smaller batches, such as 50 or 100 images at a time, to see if the issue persists. This could help identify if the problem is related to the number of files being uploaded.
• Make sure that all the image files are intact and not corrupted. Sometimes, corrupted files can cause issues during the upload process.

By following these steps, you should be able to troubleshoot the issue by uploading image assets to Vertex and hopefully resolving it.

OK, we are retrying;
it seems like it's likely related to duplicate file names, and not
parentheses.

However, shouldn't this "overwrite attempt" of a file create an error that
surfaces back to the VertexAI file upload UI?
