Is there a Script to name multiple InDesign Interactive text Fields?

New Here ,
Sep 05, 2024 Sep 05, 2024

I have 100's of Interactive text fields and I'd like to bypass the man hours put into naming each one individually. Is there a script for only the naming of the fields?

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

Is it important what the text fields are called?

If not, why rename them?

If so, do you have a list of names? Or, how do you know what to call each field?

It's very important that each interactive text field have a unique name. Some of these will be ADA.

I have a list of the names.
