Facing issue in upgrading after renaming the addon

Hi Everyone,

Good Afternoon. We recently rename the add-on. After renaming we are facing the below issues :

* After upgrading we are able to see two addon. One with old name and one with new name but ideally after upgrading only the latest addon should be there.

* Inputs of old addon are not migrating to new addon.

We replicated the APPID of old addon with new addon but it did not work. If anyone face the issue ,please suggest to resolve the problem.

Thanks,

The easiest way to tackle this would be to remove the "renamed" app and use the one from the Splunkbase.

You can also remove the one from the Splunkbase and change the app id in your renamed app so that it does not get updated (but then you're stuck with the one you have).

Why would you want to rename the app in the first place? If you want to overwrite in-app settings you have the local directory.
