Using the ServiceM8 API, is there a way to rename files attached to filled-in forms?

ServiceM8 automatically names documents attached to filled-in forms using the pattern: “Form Name by User".

We have a client that has a lot of these with the same name, so we are inquiring if there’s a way to update the filename on ServiceM8 through the API?

Yes, can search for the file attachment and then can update the “attachment_name”

To automate this process,you could set up a webhook on form submission or creation of file. then use the webhook data to filter out and retrieve the pdf file update the file name then update it
