Importing flow creates new prompts instead of reusing existing ones

[BobSilent]

Description

After initial setup the list of prompts has 9 elements

after importing the Example flow: Enrollment with email verification, the list has 5 new elements. But these "new element" have already been there before import (from Field, Label and Type perspective).

Importing the sample flow again, will create again additional new prompts, and especially as the documentation suggested to update the flow like that:

In stages configuration I cannot really distinguish between all the same named prompts:

Expected behavior/questions:

• should the prompt list be extended, if the prompts are already available (username, name, email, password, password_repeat) ?
• is the ordering correct (username and password have both 0..)?
• are the so called "prompts", not more "fields" or "field definitions"? and should the ordering better be done in the stages setup where the "fields" get used - so that a stage decides about the ordering of a field?

Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Clean initial Setup
2. Download Example flow: Enrollment with email verification
3. Navigate in admin interface to "Flow & Stages"
4. check "Prompts" list
5. Navigate to Flow and import downloaded flow (2.)
6. check "Prompts" list

Version and Deployment (please complete the following information):

• authentik version: 2022.5.2
• Deployment: docker-compose

Interesting, for the first import that is (sadly) to be expected, since the existence check is done based on primary key, so that will (for the foreseeable future or until #1573 happens) be the case.

However, after the first import, that should not be the case, as the primary key of the akflow is used 1:1 in the database so it should update the existing prompts

I just retested it on my test instance, as unfortunately I recognized this on my productive instance... where i already imported different example flows.

But: i used multiple times the enrollment-email-verification.akflow which i downloaded on 2022-03-18 (i think there was no update on the flow since then) but i happend again.

Flows and Stages get overwritten, Prompts get added...

When i look at the Ids, eg. for the email prompt, i see in the akflow file:

        {
            "identifiers": {
                "pk": "1ff91927-e33d-4615-95b0-c258e5f0df62"
            },
            "model": "authentik_stages_prompt.prompt",
            "attrs": {
                "field_key": "email",
                "label": "Email",
                "type": "email",
                "required": true,
                "placeholder": "Email",
                "order": 1
            }
        },

but none of the (imported) prompts has this pk:
