    Thanks! This is very helpful. I'm able to reproduce this now. We're looking into it.

    We have a rough idea of what's occurring, though not exactly why it's occurring yet. One thing that may be relevant though is that for some calls, you're using `setProgressBlock` and checking `if (totalBytesUploaded == totalBytesExpectedToUploaded` to see if the operation is complete. You should always use the response block (e.g., `setResponseBlock` for most calls, or passed as a parameter for `batchUploadFiles`) to know when the operation completed and then carry on with your next steps.

    Please try making that change and let me know if it does or doesn't help. Thanks!
