      Issue Summary

      When a downloaded file is edited and then uploaded back to the Attachments macro, the display in the Office Excel macro returns the below error.

      Error rendering macro 'viewxls' : Failed to retrieve attachment with name <excelfile name>.xlsx

      Steps to Reproduce

      • Create a page and add an Attachments macro. Publish the page.
      • Drag and drop two Excel files in the Attachments macro.
      • Edit the page and add the Office Excel macro. Use one of the files in the Attachments to display. Publish the Page.
      • On the published page, upload the same file displayed using Office Excel macro (with or without) using the same attachment list. Confluence will create a new version of the same file.
