Hey @CometNet,

You can rename the file name using the Function Node as shown in the example workflow below:

Note: I am updating the configuring the file name in the first line of the code in the Function node. Also, this will work only if you’re receiving a single file. For multiple files you’ll have to tweak the function.

for (index in items){
  items[index].binary.data = Object.assign(items[index].binary.data, {fileName:"new filename"});
}
return items;

Thank you

This is so useful, it should be more prominent imho.

You can use this Code snippet (for every item)

$input.item.binary.data = Object.assign($input.item.binary.data, {fileName: $input.item.binary.data.fileName + ".ogg"});

return $input.item;
