file.day does not work

[pomu0326]

What happened?

The file.day function does not work as expected under certain conditions.

Situation:

Consider the following files:

• History/2024-01-01 Test1
• History/2024-01-02 Test2
• History/Backup/2024-01-03 Test3

I created the following query to retrieve the dates from the files under the History folder:

LIST file.day
FROM "History"

However, the file.day could not retrieve the date for the file located in the Backup folder.

Expected

• 2024-01-01 Test1: 2024-01-01
• 2024-01-02 Test2: 2024-01-02
• 2024-01-03 Test3: 2024-01-03

Actual

• 2024-01-01 Test1: 2024-01-01
• 2024-01-02 Test2: 2024-01-02
• 2024-01-03 Test3: -

DQL

LIST file.day
FROM "History"

The reason is unclear, but the symptoms are no longer recurring. Thank you.
