Hello

I tried to change a Custom App name (e.g BRB_App to CAA_App) on the Deployer through the Cli but i realize that the name change only affects the Folder name not the name of the App when i checked the UI. Is there a way to effect that change to affect the Name of the custom App and not just the folder name

First things first - you're talking about deployer. Do you indeed have your apps on the search-head cluster deployer or maybe you meant the deployment server?

Hi

Every apps has app.conf file under <app>/default. There is defined app's name and some other parameters. You must change those in this file. Then the name of app will changed on your GUI too.

Thanks for the reply, thats what i thought but am not seeing any configuration in the app.conf file under the app folder. Do i need to add those config myself or find another way to go about it
