Here is an old trick of mine that does not involve hacking the DB

Hi,
Short answer - no way. As you can see in API Explorer, all of the properties of a workflow run object (WorkflowToken) are exposed as read-only attributes.
Of course, you can try some hacks, for example use Database/SQL plug-in and update the name/title of the run directly in the database, but this goes beyond normal usage scenarios and is not supported.

Ho Chris,
good tip, is #__username usable also in vRO6.0, bcs it is my case and here I can't find out the usage.
BTW can I replace it with any other input variable?
Thanks,

Hi Chris,
it is working like a charm, I am blind and can't read your snippet .
Thank you, it is working pretty well.
Now I am challenging other topic, how this make it alive with multi-node plug-in, from this usage workflow execution is started with same name as parent workflow, if I started it manually, the execution name reflected presentation settings, could you help with this also?
Hi, I played little bit around multi-node plug-in I solved it, I hope that I solved it.
I connect my remove workflows as asynchronous workflows and now it is working, I will test it little more deeper and I hope I will solve it in standard way of workflows usage.
Otherwise again thanks for your snippet it is awesome! :smileycool:

Hello,
the link in the answer goes to a web page but the snapshots have disappeared.
Code snippets : Change the name of a workflow run
Can someone share the snapshots or more explanation on how to achieve "workflow rename" at run time (or after run) ?
Tks
