In which Wildbook did the issue occur? Internet of Turtles

What operating system were you using? (eg. MacOS 10.15.3) MacOS

What happened? I tried to set an ID to an existing ID but it wasn’t recognized

The turtle below has several annotations, not sure why the flipper annotation didn’t set once I assigned an ID to the head annotation, but when I tried to manually set it, the ID was not recognized. The ID should be AoP.Turtle.ID.279

What did you expect to happen?

What are some steps we could take to reproduce the issue?

That is strange. Thanks for the heads up! I wonder if it has to do with the character length? I know there was in issue in another Wildbook where IDs with too few characters weren’t being auto-suggested in this field. I’ll check with the devs and follow up as soon as I have more details.
