Mapbox API - update tileset - api

Question

I am trying to replace tileset resources - using the https://docs.mapbox.com/api/maps/mapbox-tiling-service/#replace-a-tileset-source. I get the 200 response code for tilesetId I provide, but I cannot see my changes when I check it in my mapbox -> studio -> tilesets section.
const updateURL = `https://api.mapbox.com/tilesets/v1/sources/${username}/${id}?access_token=${accessToken}`;
const updateTilesetOptions = {
'method': 'PUT',
'url': updateURL,
'headers': {
'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'
},
formData: {
'file': {
'value': Buffer.from(fileToUpload.data).toString(),
'options': {
'filename': fileToUpload.name,
'contentType': null
}
}
}
};
const updateResponse = await requestPromise(updateTilesetOptions);
console.log("updateResponse.statusCode " , updateResponse.statusCode)
if (updateResponse.statusCode >= 400) {
return {
message: updateResponse.statusMessage,
code: updateResponse.statusCode,
source: "Update Tileset"
}
}
Can someone suggest what I am doing wrong. Note: I also tried to publish tileset after udpating the source, but I am getting 400 error.

I received a reply from Mapbox. This is the correct process;
(1) Delete the existing tileset source. If you just update the existing tileset, you are indeed appending data to it.
(2) Create a new tileset source with the same ID
(3) Publish your updated tileset. Please note that this suggests that you already have a tileset recipe configured for the existing tileset
Please let me know if it works for you. It works for me now. I was missing the publishing step.
