 Description   

I have a bedrock server hosted on Apex Hosting and I'm trying to add a resource pack and a behavior pack to the world. I downloaded the world, and the resource pack and behavior pack are both showing up under their respective menus, but under global resources on the world, I'm playing on, only the resource packs are showing up and it won't let me activate them. The behavior pack isn't showing at all under the global resources tab, only under the behavior packs tab, and again, it won't let me activate it. Same deal for resource packs, it won't let me activate them from the global resources panel or the resource pack panel. I've put them in the resource and behavior pack folders to no avail. How do I fix this?? I'd like to resolve this ASAP as the server and players are waiting on it to be able to play again.

This is still a valid issue because you can't add behavior packs to bedrock dedicated server without loading the world in Minecraft Bedrock Edition and applying the pack there. Then have to export again back to the server. 

This is extremely clunky and I highly doubt it's how it was intended to work considering that the official documentation doesn't say this. 

It should only be a matter of adding the behavior pack to the behaviour_packs directory and updating the world_behaviour_packs.json. However this does not work. The behaviour pack won't be applied to a world that is generated by the BDS even if everything was done correctly per the documentation.

If this is in fact how it was intended, then your documentation needs to be updated accordingly.
