# Renaming Assets on Upload

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.**](https://support.hivo.co/client-profile/client-profile-settings/filename-setting)

### **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.&#x20;

### 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.
