Hello,

Turns out this works for changing the name of a document


bpm_package.children[0].properties["ygrd:DocumentTitle"] =  "Blah";
bpm_package.children[0].save();

will change the title of the document. changing the title of the space is still a bit of a mystery, also change the name (not the title) of a document seems to be a hassle too. I am looking for the simplest way to keep the name of the document with the correct file extention.

To rename the space name is not a mistery. It is just something like:

space.properties["cn:name"] = "the-new-name";
space.save();

all you need is to get hold of the space. If the space is the space containing the document, probably is something like;

bpm_package.properties["cn:name"] = "the-new-name";
bpm_package.save();

to change the name of the document is similar:

bpm_package.children[0].properties["cn:name"] = "Blah";
bpm_package.children[0].save();
