Kiota generate gives me weird result

[pennan88]

When I run Kiota generate, it changes the parameters every time, even though the file hasn't been modified. I observe the same behavior for both generate and update. If I generate or update the file three times, the result will be inconsistent.

public ActivityRequestBuilder(Dictionary<string, object> pathParameters, IRequestAdapter requestAdapter) : base(requestAdapter, "{+baseurl}/activity/{?_embed*,_limit*,_sort*}", pathParameters)

Hi @pennan88
Thank you for using kiota and for reaching out.

Do you have other parameters define at the path item level? Do you have other path items under /activity?

[pennan88]

Yes, there are quite a lot of paths, around 100 i would say. The activity is somewhere around the middle. It also has some subpaths like /activity/{id}/SomeName.

Thank you for the additional information.

Beyond the variation in the URI template, do you see any variation of the query parameters that get generated?

[pennan88]

Hello!

Yes, there are some variations of the /activity and its subpaths. Not all of them include the limit or sort parameters.

Thank you for the additional information.

This looks like a race condition, they are generally difficult to investigate and require a deep understanding of the internals of kiota.

What would help tremendously here is if you could put together the smallest description possible that reproduces the issue.

[pennan88]

I'll try to reproduce the behaviour using a smaller set of instructions and get back to you.
