Export Gif as a web with actions it keeps saving the same file.

How do I set it up correctly so it saves in different files every time when I batch?

It keeps saving replacing the same file over and over when batching.

The override saves as the function doesn't work for export files it seems.

Is there anyway to get this to work?

Try re-recording the export save for web step and do not set a file Name in the save dialog. Let Photoshop default the file name to the current document name. There is much recorded in an export save for web action step. Here I recorded two in a row One like you want the action toe one, The other the way you recorder the action. Because of how complex save for wen is I only show a small important part of the steps where the file name gets involved in the step. Path the file name. So you can see the difference I show the action in side by side views

Are you using the File > Automate > Batch command? If so, there is a whole Destination section which can control Saving, Closing and Overriding Save As Commands.
