I have a generator configured for my Master Data Id field.

Now, I try editing the profile by updating the Name attribute:

Once, I hit the Save, this is what happens:

This is how the configuration of Master Data Id is specified in L3.
{
"label": "Master Data ID",
"name": "masterDataID",
"type": "String",
"hidden": false,
"important": false,
"system": false,
"faceted": false,
"searchable": true,
"autoGenerated": true,
"generator": "SEQ_MasterDataId",
"autoGenerationPattern": "{value}",
"generateIfEmpty": true,
"generateIfNotEmpty": false,
"generatedValueUniqueForCrosswalk": false,
"attributeOrdering": {
"orderType": "ASC",
"orderingStrategy": "LUD"
},
"uri": "configuration/entityTypes/ReferenceDataList/attributes/masterDataID",
"skipInDataAccess": false
}
I don't want this to happen. I don't need the generator to create an id every time. Please advise.
NOTE: I doubt this would be the case for Suggest mode as well.
