Renaming Assets on Upload

This page explains how users can bulk rename assets or file names when uploading new assets into HIVO via the Upload tool

HIVO allows you to rename assets (Assets) during the upload process. You can:

• Batch rename multiple assets at once.

• Individually rename each asset as needed.

👉 Note: Admin can set default naming conventions for your account at: Client Profile > Settings > File Name Settings.

Rename according to pattern

📌 In the Asset Name box:

• Enter the desired pattern name: You can combine custom text (e.g., HIVO) with the {original name} pattern to create a new name, such as HIVO {original name}.

• Automatic Pattern Application: Instead of having to manually click the "Apply pattern" button as before, the system now automatically applies naming rules the moment you make a change. When you switch from one pattern to another (e.g., from {HIVO} to {Original name}), the names of all related assets will be instantly updated to the new format.

Change individual names

During the upload process, if you want to give a unique name to one or more specific assets, follow these steps:

• Enter the new name directly into the Name field corresponding to the specific asset you wish to modify.

• If you delete the name and leave it blank, the default asset name will be original name.

👉 Note: If you use the "Rename according to pattern" feature after manually renaming an asset, that manual name will be overwritten to match the selected pattern logic.

Sort Assets

Change the display order of your files before the naming rules are applied:

• Default Order: The original sequence based on the order in which you selected the files for upload.

• Name (Up/Down Arrow): Sorts files alphabetically from A-Z or in reverse from Z-A.
