Can Team Projects be renamed?

I'd like to rename our Team Projects. Is there a way to do that, short of converting them to local projects and converting it back to new team projects? We have quite a few to rename.

Also, is there a recommended way to organize these projects into folders and subfolders?

We have a large series of projects coming and are trying to keep things from getting out of hand.

Thank you!

The real control of Team Projects lies in the Media Broswer, so you need to have that open.

I also forgot the third, and actually, easiest way to "rename" your project, and it's something I did recently with success, myself.

1) Open the Media Browser

2) Push changes to the cloud so you make a new version. Versions are what gets pushed to Creative Cloud, Auto-Save is the local copy of your Team Project database.

2) The bottom section on the left pane called "Creative Cloud" shows your Team Projects

3) Twirl that down, and twirl down "Team Project Versions" to see all of your Team Projects

4) Right-click your desired project and choose "Team Project Versions"

5) Pick the most recently shared version and choose "Browse."

6) Now right-click on the project again and choose "New Team Project from Version..."

You'll get a dialog box allowing you to pick a new name and the collaborators list will already be populated with the current collaborators.

Clunky? Yes. Relatively simple, though? Also yes.

Unfortunately, not. This is something I've been meaning to make a feature request about, and I recommend that you do too. www.adobe.com/go/wish

The more people that request it, the higher chance this has of becoming a feature.

Rather than convert your Team Projects to local to rename, you could create a new one with your desired name, then import the previous project into the new one. If you're just working in After Effects, then it's probably easier to convert to a local project, rename, then convert back, but if you're using Premiere AND After Effects, then the first method might be simpler. This avoids having to convert the team project to a local .prproj and .aep.

David, how do you import a Team Project into another one?

That's awesome. Thanks so much David!


Ha. I found the correct method for this:

Under the File pulldown:

File>Team Project Settings>"Team Project Settings..." button

It's all right there - very straightforward. Lol!
