There have been multiple cases where we get no results for PK but when we set `skipUpsert = true`, we start getting some results. The API will help debug in those scenarios. If there is no query result, it is guaranteed that this API will return NOT_FOUND. Could you give an example how this API can help debug the issue? IMO using `skipUpsert = true` should be the correct way to debug the issue -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
