Flow action names appended with _id by default in 7.1.9
When I create flows/steps from the case tab the flow action names gets defaulted with '_id' at the end. Looks like a bug or is it a feature?

Hi Maarten, Good morning!
I believe flow name or flow action names being appended with unique ID is expected when created from case designer to refrain from rule already exists error.
Please share your comments/thoughts, Thank you!

Hi Prani,
the flow name itself doesn't get the string _id appended, only the flow action name in the flow. It's not a unique id but just the text _id . The flow action is not created, so that can't give a rule-already-exists error. Seems more like a bug IMO.
Also, if you look here: https://docs-previous.pega.com/implementation-methodology-and-dco/naming-standards-case-lifecycle-management-components-and-records-classes-tables-and-other-objects
General guidelines for record naming conventions: (..) Do not include underscores or other special characters, except as noted.
