+## Description
+
+In an attempt to display initial files in the [`FileSelect`](slug:fileselect-overview) component, the files are fetched from an API call and assigned to the `Files` parameter of the component. Despite this, the component does not render the initial file list as expected.
+
+## Cause
+
+The root cause of the issue is that the `Files` parameter of the FileSelect component is not designed to be reactive. Consequently, changes made to this parameter at runtime do not automatically trigger the component to update or re-render with the new list of files.
+
+## Solution
+
+To ensure that the FileSelect component reflects changes made to the `Files` parameter, you’ll need to recreate the FileSelect component.
