Automatically naming an Attachment

[Ross_Campbell]

Hello everyone, I’ve had a look on the forums and haven’t found a mention of this, but is it possible to have air table automatically rename attachments.

For example. If I have a record named Ross and there are four images attached for those images to be named renamed ROSS-1.jpg, ROSS-2.jpg, ROSS-3.jpg, ROSS-4.pg?

Thanks so much!

Do you of your top of your head help direct me to how I can access the attachment name?

Here’s the info on how attachments can be set/retrieved by the scripting API.

I came across this issue a while ago trying to rename attachments based on record fields. And I didn’t find a simple way to do it in Airtable without digging into the script’s code. So I created a (paid) extension to assist with renaming multiple attachments at once based on the records fields, ZekTec - Airtable Extensions, hope this can help anyone that is facing this in the future :slightly_smiling_face:
