SPO - File vanished from a document library?
Hi Rob-CTL,
Does the missing document need to be published? Not sure what your library settings are but it could simply be a minor version and not major version of the file.
I hope this helps.

Hi Norman Young
Thanks for the response, sadly nothing that easy. The site is a basic classic team site template and the document library is the default "Shared Documents".
Cheers

Hi Rob-CTL,
The other thing that comes to mind, is if the document has been blocked (i.e. virus, malware, compliance etc). The up-loader would see a "signal" on the document indicating an issue and I don't believe anyone else would see it.

Just to close this one off, the issue was that the file the user was uploading was 400Mb which they drag-dropped onto the document library. Although the file appeared to be in the library the upload was still running and then the user closed their browser...the upload stopped and the file "vanished". I'm not sure why the file appeared in the library before the upload had completed.
