Change Related Action name/label

Question

Hi there, I'm wondering if it is possible to change the name/label of a related action on a record. At the moment it uses the name of the process model, which is a very ugly name and not user friendly. I don't want to change the process model's name, since it adheres to our naming conventions. 
 Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Morné Lombard ,

I ran into this issue as well. Another work around is to create a new wrapper PM with the name you want for the related action to be and call your original PM inside the wrapper PM and then call the wrapper PM in the related action. Let me know if you have any questions about this solution.

I dont think that is possible. The only way is to change the process model name.

I don't think it is possible to change related action's name. As a work around you can keep the process display name as per naming conventions so that at runtime process instance displays it as per convention and change the process name to a user friendly name.

Hi, Appian itself suggests that you should never use the Naming convention for the Related Actions similar to the Naming convention used for Process Models. The Naming for a Related Action must be Short & Descriptive (i.e not using any Application prefixes or something). You can read more about it here Standard Object Names 
 So for now you cannot rename the particular Process Model's name.
