Rename Folder

UiPath.Box.Activities.Folder.RenameFolder

The Rename Folder activity uses the Box Update folder API to rename (New Folder Name) a specified folder (Folder Id).

After renaming the file, the activity outputs a BoxFolder object (BoxFolder) that includes the properties of the updated folder.

How it works

The following steps and message sequence diagram is an example of how the activity works from design time (i.e., the activity dependencies and input/output properties) to run time.

1. Complete the Setup steps.
2. Add the Box Scope activity to your project.
3. Add an activity or run an external process that outputs a Folder.Id value (e.g., Create Folder, Search for Content, etc.).
4. Add the Rename Folder activity inside the Box Scope activity.
5. Enter values for the Input properties.
6. Create and enter a BoxFolder variable for the Output property.
   • Your input property values are sent in the Update folder API operation request.
   • The operation returns the BoxFolder value to your output property variable.
