rather think to generate the unique identifier generating a random sequence
and append to it the real extension.

Unique identifier is not a file name. It is not intended to be used as such. You can access original file name on the serverside and save it in any way you want. |

@roibeart The uniqueIdentifier is really for cases where you might be sending your file(s) to a load-balanced server. Then you'd want to make sure you route all of the chunks to that specific server so you can put the chunks together rather than have them dispersed. Just posting that as an FYI. Correct me if I'm wrong anyone! |
