Edit a namespace display name

Last updated on April 23, 2024

Overview

With AccelByte Gaming Services (AGS), you will use namespaces in the AGS Admin Portal to manage features, attributes, and accessibility.

If you'd like to edit the display name of one of namespaces, you can do so in the AGS Admin Portal. Both publisher namespaces and game namespaces can have their display names edited. This How-to will walk you through editing the name of a namespace.

info

A namespace Display Name is the name of your studio or game and can be changed at any time. This differs from a Title ID, which is an identifier used for data and configuration purposes (e.g., URL names or code implementation). A game namespace's Title ID cannot be changed after it's been created.

For more information about namespaces, see Namespaces under the Services section.

Prerequisites

• You will need an AGS account to gain access to the AGS Admin Portal. If you don't have one, you can create a free Starter account or reach out to your AccelByte account representative.
• You have at least one namespace created. If you have an AGS account, your publisher namespace and first game namespace were created as part of the registration process.

Edit a namespace display name

If you'd like to change the display name of a namespace, you can do so from the Your Titles page in your AGS Admin Portal by following these steps.

1. Log in to your AGS Admin Portal.
2. Ensure you're on the Your Titles page that shows all of your namespaces (YOUR STUDIO and GAMES, no sidebar).
   1. If you're not on the Your Titles page and are instead inside of a namespace (the sidebar is visible), click the dropdown in the upper-left corner under NAMESPACE.
   2. Click Title Settings to be taken to the Your Titles page.
3. Next to the namespace with the display name you'd like the edit, click the gear Title settings icon.
4. On the namespace Details page, click your Display Name.
5. Enter the new display name and click the blue checkbox to confirm.
   1. Optionally, you can click the box with the X to cancel and discard changes.

Your namespace's display name has been updated to the name you entered.

What's next?

• Create additional game namespaces for each game in your portfolio.
• Switch namespaces in the Admin Portal, so you can configure the proper one.
• Set game namespaces active or inactive.
