Hi team,

I looking for the way to rename Item name using rest api. Example my Item has code is SKU01, now I want to change to SKU01abc using rest api. How can I do that? I tried the PUT method but it’s not working.

Thank you so much.

Hey,

You can rename any doctype using this whitelist function.

github.com

frappe/frappe/blob/8f7a4f6697bd732a712cf582c2f321dc67c73629/frappe/init.py#L1352


      
          	:param dn: Document name.
          	:param force: Reload even if `modified` timestamp matches.
          	"""
          
          
	import frappe.modules
          
          
	return frappe.modules.reload_doc(module, dt, dn, force=force, reset_permissions=reset_permissions)
          
          

          
@whitelist(methods=["POST", "PUT"])
          def rename_doc(
          	doctype: str,
          	old: str,
          	new: str,
          	force: bool = False,
          	merge: bool = False,
          	*,
          	ignore_if_exists: bool = False,
          	show_alert: bool = True,
          	rebuild_search: bool = True,
          ) -> str:

Here is the API call

@Maheshwari_Bhavesh
I am utilizing token-based authentication to follow this REST API: REST API (frappeframework.com)

This is the REST API used on the web. The /api/method/frappe.rename_doc API also functions with the same token.

Thank you so much.
