Bulk Rename

If multiple replacements or edits to folder and file titles are required, the Bulk Changes option is an efficient tool for completing necessary updates.

To perform a Bulk Rename, from within the Documents tab or Sandbox:

1. Via checkbox, select the Fileroom containing items that need title changes.
2. Click Bulk Changes at the top. If selecting content within a fileroom via checkbox, Bulk Changes is located under More Actions.
   • To make individual title edits, select Use Editing Tool, expand filerooms and folders as necessary, type changes in the New Name column, and click Save Changes.
   • To make large bulk changes, select Export Index List.
3. Open the Excel file that you've downloaded. Do not alter the existing format.
4. Enter (or paste) the new titles into the New Name column.
5. Save the Excel spreadsheet locally - do not rename the spreadsheet while saving.
6. If you still have the Bulk Changes window open, import the newly saved spreadsheet immediately by selecting Import Now. If you closed the window, click on Bulk Changes again.
7. Select Import Existing Excel.
8. Drag and drop the spreadsheet or browse using the Choose button.
9. Click Import. The Bulk Rename screen appears. If desired, browse the proposed changes by expanding the list using the arrows under Current Name or filter to see edits only by checking the Filter by Edits checkbox.
10. If everything looks good, click Save Changes.

NOTE: Export a new Bulk Edit template list for each set of updates. If an template is re-used more than once, the import will not succeed.
