Back when there was a bug and migration template wasnt working, I was deployed and didnt know. So I have 6 months worth of files that now have random numbers for file names instead of the custom ones I created.

Is there anyways to reverse that?

Running the storage template migration job should fix that

#

Oh actually hm, in that detail panel it should be displaying the filename the file had when you uploaded it

#

Did you reset your instance at some point?

As I discovered all of this it crashed so technically it reimported with those file names to the new instance. Was kinda hoping there was a rhyme to the string that cab be reveresed with a script or something.

No, it’s a totally random string

You would need a database backup
