Explains how to configure a custom file naming format when exporting documents and transcripts from Opus 2 using existing metadata fields.

By default, Opus 2 uses the Document Name field as the file name when exporting documents and transcripts. The naming convention can be changed to a user-defined custom format using existing metadata fields within Opus 2.

Customising the export file naming format

  1. Click the three-dot icon next to your chosen collection or, if exporting from a folder, use Export in the toolbar.
  2. Choose Export from the Collection menu or PDF or Zip bundle from toolbar.
  3. From the Export menu, click Zip export settings to reveal additional export settings.
  4. Select the File Naming dropdown and change the option to Custom Format.
  5. Select Add custom format, then choose the field(s) and delimiter(s) to be applied to your exported document or transcript names.
Note: Use the Add option to append additional metadata fields to the name of the documents or transcripts.
  1. Click Save to save your custom format.
  2. Click Export to export your documents or transcripts with the custom naming scheme.
  3. Once the export has been requested, click the Project button in the top-right corner and choose Exports from the dropdown to view and download your exported documents.
