Renaming a media item updates its display name only. The underlying file keeps the same url, so widgets and branding that reference the item don’t need to be re-wired.

What rename changes

  • The name shown in the Media Library, in image pickers, and in search.

What rename doesn’t change

  • The file’s url and S3 key (both are immutable).
  • The size or mime_type.
  • Any widget or branding that references the file — it keeps working.
Renaming also runs as part of the upload flow: after the file uploads, Oviond confirms the item’s display name with the same update call.

API

PUT /v1/media/{id} with a name renames the item. It returns 404 if the item doesn’t exist in your account.
