Microsof Lists - when "ID" column added to Lists view, it generated all numbers except number 9

Question

Hi all,

when I added to my Lists view "ID column", it generated unique IDs for all the items in the view, but for some reason it skipped number 9. I tried to remove the column, add again - the same results. There is nothing suspicious in column set up as I reviewed... Weird... Any explanation?

Hi @Petr Marak ,

Please try to do a troubleshooting:

1. Check if an item was deleted.
2. Check if the same situation occurs in other lists.

The ID column generates unique IDs for all items . In my test, if I delete an item ,and then I add the ID column, I will find that it skips a number.

For example(as shown below): I delete the "ddd" item, then added the ID column, it skipped the number 4.
