Issue/Introduction

Upon adding or changing Icon in the custom form, the "EDIT CUSTOM FORM" is lost and only gives option to "CREATE CUSTOM FORM," resulting in the loss of form formatting.

Environment

VCF Automation 9.0.2

Cause

When the icon or name of a blueprint is changed, a PUT operation removes the link between the existing Custom Form and the blueprint in the database. The form remains in the database, but the UI fails to load it because the association is missing. 

Resolution

Broadcom Engineering team is aware of the issue and will be fixed in the future release.

Workaround 01:

Upon changing the icon, click on edit the form and save it again without any changes. This will re-assign the connection and the form will be linked again and will have the icon as well.

Workaround 02:

Using a DB request, we can connect the forms with the blueprints again, e.g. update the blueprint table.
