How do I rename an email template or one of its versions?

Objective

This article shows you how to change the name of an email template or of an individual version, so your list stays easy to navigate as it grows.

 

Product

Twilio Email

 

Environment

Twilio Console

 

Procedure

  1. In the Twilio Console, select Communications in the left sidebar.
  2. Select Messaging, then Templates.
  3. Select the Email tab, then Your templates.
  4. To rename the template, select Open menu on the template row, then select Edit template name. In the Edit Template Name panel, enter the new name and save.
  5. To rename a version, expand the template, select Open menu on the version row, then select Edit version name. In the Edit Version Name panel, enter the new name and save.
  6. The message "Template name updated successfully." confirms a template rename, and the list refreshes with the new name.

 

Additional Information

  • Template names can only contain lowercase alphanumeric characters and underscores. No other characters or spaces are allowed.
  • Names are private to your account and only visible to you, so renaming does not affect what recipients see.
  • If a rename fails you see "Failed to update template name."
  • You can also change a version's name from inside the editor while editing its design.
