@frevd,
The auto-generated container-id seems to be working fine, container-id are not dependent on the timestamp. Kindly download react chart-component from our download page & try if it works fine. If you are still facing issue with latest version of chart-component, kindly create sample project reproducing the issue you are facing and share it with us over Google-Drive or Onedrive so that we can run it locally at our end, understand the scenario better and help you resolve.
