The getRandomName() function return wrong file Extension

Hi,

I am using CI 4 Version 4.4.1 and using Postman to post data using the apps API. In the HTTP Request i am uploading a file which ends in .png extension. The problem i get is with the getRandomName() function which is returning a file extension .bin instead.
This is my code:

PHP Code:

$imageFile = $this->request->getFile('profile_image');
 $newImageNamex = $imageFile->getRandomName(); 


The value returned is (using Kint Dump):

Code:

$newImageNamex string (35) "1695474962_f067be8c9efe341ed38b.bin"


Is there a bug or there something missing in the code? I could not find help in CI4 documentation.

What do you get when you var_dump($imageFile) ?

@sammyskills  this is what i get when i do a var_dump($imageFile) :

Code:

object(CodeIgniter\HTTP\Files\UploadedFile)#78 (10) { ["size":protected]=> int(47156) ["originalMimeType":protected]=> string(9) "image/png" ["path":protected]=> string(24) "C:\xampp\tmp\php3B74.tmp" ["clientPath":protected]=> string(14) "banner-img.png" ["originalName":protected]=> string(14) "banner-img.png" ["name":protected]=> string(14) "banner-img.png" ["error":protected]=> int(0) ["hasMoved":protected]=> bool(false) ["pathName":"SplFileInfo":private]=> string(24) "C:\xampp\tmp\php3B74.tmp" ["fileName":"SplFileInfo":private]=> string(11) "php3B74.tmp" }

@sammyskills
I resolved the problem. The problem was not the code but the uploaded file using RapidAPI Client extension in vs code.

Thank your for the help.
