Google Add-on: Bulk Rename Files update Feb 2023

 

What it does

Bulk rename Google Drive™ files quickly and easily with this Add-on. You define exactly what you want to search for in the file name and the text to replace it with. Along with options for handling special characters and append/prepend to the existing file name. Works across My/Shared drives.

Update

1. Special characters
• The tool can handle: - [ ] / \ { } ( ) * + ? . ^ $ | # 
• You could remove individual characters:
• Original file name example: 'Archive backup (ready)'.
• New file name example: 'Archive backup ready'.
• You could replace these characters with others:
• Original file name example: '.backup folder'.
• New file name example: '_backup folder'.
• You could both remove and replace them at the same time:
• Original file name example: 'This experiment belongs to _[Sample]'.
• New file name example: 'This experiment belongs to Phil'.
  
2. Append / Prepend
• You can add text/characters to the beginning and/or end of the existing file name.
• In the search text enter '<<KEEPNAME>>' and in the replacement text enter 'Something before <<KEEPNAME>> something after'.
• Original file name example: 'is my'.
• New file name example: 'This is my Document'. So replacement text would be: 'This <<KEEPNAME>> Document'

Append / Prepend to the existing file name
