Re: Reserving unique Case ID attributes in Tracker - duplicates encountered when reserving via Android
Hey Calle,
we haven't really documented how this behaves when you do manual inserts of reseved values. Assuming the db insert did the same as a API reservation would have done, and that no caching is interfering what hibernate sees - the 100 new reserved values should not be among those preexisting in the TrackedEntityAttributeReservedValues.

When a request is coming from e.g. an Android device running Tracker Capture, the API will trigger the reservation of 100 values and return these to the device while also storing the reserved values in the above table.
