There was a problem hiding this comment.
Testing instructions
- Create a WorkBench dataset that includes a
createdByAgentcolumn mapped to a valid agent- Upload the dataset and verify the records are created with the mapped agent as
createdByAgent, not the uploading user's agent- Verify that datasets without
createdByAgentmapped still default to the uploading user's agent as before
Left (fix-7840), Right (v7.12.0-prerelease)

Works as expected!

Fixes #7840

When users explicitly map the
createdByAgentfield in WorkBench, the uploader overwrites it with the uploading user's agent instead of respecting the mapped value.Implementation
upload_table.pythat only auto-setscreatedbyagent_idto the uploading user's agent whencreatedbyagenthas not already been mapped as a to-one relationship in the upload planand "createdbyagent" not in to_one_idsto the existing conditional, so explicitly mapped values take precedenceTesting instructions
