Can we rename the folder from backend?

Hi Helical Team,
I am using Helical Insight version 3.0.
With regards to renaming folders/ dashboards/ reports, is there a way to do the same from the backend?

Thank You

Hello Anu,

a. Open the respective folder at the backend (from the frontend by clicking on and viewing folder properties you will be able to see its physical name and its path). Inside the folder there is a file called “index.efwfolder”. Open that file using a text editor like notepad++ and it will have a tag Folder name. Whatever name you give here in the title tag that will become the folder name at the frontend while accessing the folder from HI.

b. Open the respective .report file using text editor like notepad++ (from the frontend by clicking on and viewing report properties you will be able to see its physical file name of the report and its path). There will be a tag Report Name, in this tag put whatever name you would like, at the frontend from Helical Insight the report will now be visible with this name.

c. For the dashboard file open the respective .efw file using text editor like notepad++ (from the frontend by clicking on and viewing dashboard properties you will be able to see its physical file name and its path). There will be a tag dashboard, in this tag put whatever name you would like, at the frontend from Helical Insight the report will now be visible with this name.

Thank You
