How to force/trigger sync for specific item attachments when using WebDAV?
I am using Box.com WebDAV server for storing my attachments. Sometimes, some attachments do not get uploaded. There seems to be no fixed pattern; just some item attachments do not get uploaded while most do get uploaded. Even when I try clicking on the green sync button, they don't get uploaded.
What I ultimately have to do is to change their file name in some manner, and then Zotero detects that change, and then uploads those attachments.
Is there any way to force/trigger this sync? I know we can reset the sync by going into Preferences -> Sync -> Reset, but that resets and syncs the whole library. How to do it for some specific items?

If you can reproduce it not happening, we'd want to see a Debug ID for adding the file and having it not get uploaded on the next sync.
Moreover, I think it happened for the old files, which were already there before I did my webDAV setup. All new items' attachments seem to be uploaded.

I can't understand the pattern. Most files got uploaded fine, some could not.
And Box.com officially stopped supporting issues on their WebDAV in 2019 itself. So, it seems like it's time to stop using Box.com for WebDAV.
