04:55 AM<http://cloud.typesense.org|cloud.typesense.org>: I have collection names which have period in their name, e.g. client_a.2022-02-14. When i try to delete them using the UI, I frequently get Error: Request failed with HTTP code 404 | Server said: No collection with name 'client_a' found. and the delete is not performed (no issues deleting via the JS client).
