Describe the Issue

I have a service that I’m developing … takes some image files and converts them to a PDF.

There appears to be a problem with postman being able to send files that were added before restarting the application.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. If there are no files attached to the request, I add a new local file, and send the request … it works correctly. I get that one file sent to my server.
  2. If I shut down postman, start it up again, and send the same request, the file is not sent.
  3. If I add a new local file to the request and send it, only the new file is sent.
  4. If I restart postman again and send the request, no files are sent.
  5. If I add a third file to the request and send it, only the new file is sent.
