How to edit a name of a project space

[tam_le]

I can’t seem to edit the name of a project space once it’s created. Is this functionality not available to admins or am I overlooking it?

You cannot do so at this time, but it was recently requested by another customer.

Can Support change the name for the customer?

While it’s possible for Support to rename a Project Space for you, it is not recommended, particularly in a production environment. It would not automatically update references for the assets within that project space, so you would need to manually verify and update all pipelines.

Hi @tam.le, I think I’m the “another customer” that @dmiller is referring to. I opened a request ticket 6 months ago but tagged it as low priority since there is a workaround - which is to create a new project space and move projects and assets to that space. (BTW @dmiller, the workaround is a step or several more LOE than simply renaming the project space and adjusting the asset references, so please pass along @tam.le 's request to maybe bump priority).

In any case, I started a draft Best Practices document for moving projects between project spaces as I ran into certain issues with accounts and sub-pipelines. It may not cover all cases, but if anyone is interested, I can share.
