I believe that if you've not uploaded it prior to check in you'll be directed into the terminal to provide proof to someone inside. When I went last year this is what they were doing along with a reasonable queue to do so and that was early hours.

Another thing to not overlook is your passport expiry date
I believe you no longer get the three months that's left on your passport as we are no longer in the EU and I think you need 1 year

Stories of families being turned away at airports because there was not enough time left on their passports
are being urged to check their passport meets EU rules.
Two travellers have told of being turned away from departure gates because their documents fell foul of the requirements.
It is an issue being made more urgent by delays in processing passport applications as demand for travel recovers following the COVID-19 pandemic.
The government website says passports must meet two requirements for those planning to visit an EU country (except Ireland).
They must be less than 10 years old - from the date of issue - on the day you enter your destination
They must remain valid for at least three months after you leave
For some countries in the Schengen travel area, however, your passport "may need to be less than 10 years old during your whole visit", the advice warns.

And the three months following the end of your visit "may need to be within 10 years of your passport's issue date".
The Schengen area comprises 26 EU countries which have abolished all passport and all other border controls at their mutual borders.
While the UK government says it is "asking the European Commission to clarify the 10-year rule", guidance for "Schengen border guards may not be updated until the spring of 2022".
One woman wrote on Facebook of her "crushing disappointment" after being "turned away at the departure gate for a flight to Tenerife because of an issue with my passport".
That was despite it not expiring "until March 2023".
And Ian Glover, 66, said he was turned away from a check-in desk at East Midlands Airport on 25 April because the issue date of his passport was not close enough to the end of his planned trip to Portugal.
He told Derbyshire Live: "They also want three months from the expiry of the date of issue. That's not being made clear at all."

Any unvaxxed travelled yet?
Apart from proof of vaccination and my passport, do I need any other paperwork to travel and fish in France.
Going out Friday, this will be my first trip following the COVID outbreak.

Went to France last week as an unvaccinated traveller. Got to the port and wasn't even asked my covid status or to produce my negative pcr test certificate. They just waved us through. I was also travelling with a fully vaccinated friend and he wasn't asked to show his nhs pass either. It's all just a scam. The port was also really quiet.
