I created a job in Sync, but decided I want to change the name I gave the job. However, I don’t see an option in Sync’s UI to do this. Am I able to rename a job in Sync once it’s been created? ---

Currently, changing job names once they’ve been created is not something that Sync supports. However, you can create a new job with the settings from an existing job. Here are the steps for doing so: 1. Name your Job. 2. Select the Job to copy from. 3. _(Optional)_ Choose a different source and destination. The Source and Destination connection type must match the previous Jobs’s. 4. _(Optional)_ Copy Tasks from the previous Job. _Note_: If using a different source connection, you will need to validate all tables added as Tasks exist in your Source before running the Job. 5. _(Optional)_ Copy Notification, Schedule, Logging, Events and Advanced Settings. After selecting **Create** , you’ll be directed to the Job Settings page for your new Job. Here, you’ll be able to add new tables, set up a schedule, view the run history and set any additional replication settings for your Job. ![f9706bae-3ae6-4ffe-ae05-e2c4b15c0bdf.png](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/cdata/original/2X/e/e330ba573913e7b550ce7565cd88e5d9907507a3.png) Sync’s “Create New Job” pop-up
