Hi Guys,

I am probably not the first one with this issue or I am just doing something wrong and I am not seeing it.

Basically, I am pushing array field into an existing document using UpdateByQueryAction API everything seems ok until version number auto increments. It is not propagating newly added items into new version of document.

What am I missing here?
