Rename a Training Project

Change your training project name to better reflect its purpose while keeping all workflows, runs, and the project ID intact.

Renaming a training project in Datature Vi updates the display name only. All workflows, runs, trained models, and the project ID stay exactly as they were.

Before You Start

Access to the project you want to rename (organization member)

1

Open your training project

Open your training project

Go to Training in the sidebar and click the project you want to rename.

You should see
Project list showing the renamed project

The updated project name appears in the training projects list and in all navigation breadcrumbs.

What changes and what stays the same

Renaming affects only the display name. Everything else is unchanged:

Item
Changes?
Display name in the UI
Name shown in navigation
Name returned by API (display field)
Project ID
All workflows and configurations
All training runs and metrics
All trained models
Project localization (geographic region)

The project ID never changes, so API integrations and SDK scripts keep working without any updates.

Project localization cannot change. The geographic region where training workloads run is permanent after project creation. If you need a different region, create a new project with the correct localization and recreate your workflows there.

Update the project description

While you have the Settings page open, you can also update the Training Project Description field. Enter a new description and click Update next to that field.

The description is a good place to record:

  • What the project trains on
  • The intended use case or objective
  • Model architecture choices or dataset pairings
  • Version history or team contacts

Do this with the Vi SDK

import vi

client = vi.Client(
    secret_key="your-secret-key",
    organization_id="your-organization-id"
)

project = client.training_projects.update(
    training_project_id="your-training-project-id",
    spec={"name": "New Project Name"}
)

print(f"Updated: {project.spec.name}")

For more details, see the full SDK reference.
