  2. Click the Peers link in the Administration panel.

  3. Click the “a b” (Bulk Rename) icon on the right side of the Peers panel.

CSV

Enter (or copy and paste) a list of comma-separated values into the CSV field. The first two values of each line should be the public key and the new name for a peer identity.

For example, with a header line (headers are ignored):

PublicKey, Name
/TOE4TKtAqVsePRVR+5AA43HkAK5DSntkOCO7nYq5xU=, Alice's Laptop
fE/wdxzl0klVp/IR8UcaoGUMjqaWi3jAd7KzHKFS6Ds=, Bob's Phone
jUd41n3XYa3yXBzyBvWqlLhYgRef5RiBD7jwo70U+Rw=, Carla's Workstation

Or with names first:

Alice's Laptop,/TOE4TKtAqVsePRVR+5AA43HkAK5DSntkOCO7nYq5xU=
Bob's Phone,fE/wdxzl0klVp/IR8UcaoGUMjqaWi3jAd7KzHKFS6Ds=
Carla's Workstation,jUd41n3XYa3yXBzyBvWqlLhYgRef5RiBD7jwo70U+Rw=

Or quoted, with extra fields (extra fields are ignored):

"Public Key","Name","Device","OS"
"/TOE4TKtAqVsePRVR+5AA43HkAK5DSntkOCO7nYq5xU=","Alice's Laptop","MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2020)","macOS 12.4"
"fE/wdxzl0klVp/IR8UcaoGUMjqaWi3jAd7KzHKFS6Ds=","Bob's Phone","iPhone 12","iOS 15.0.2"

Or tab separated:

/TOE4TKtAqVsePRVR+5AA43HkAK5DSntkOCO7nYq5xU=	Alice's Laptop
fE/wdxzl0klVp/IR8UcaoGUMjqaWi3jAd7KzHKFS6Ds=	Bob's Phone
jUd41n3XYa3yXBzyBvWqlLhYgRef5RiBD7jwo70U+Rw=	Carla's Workstation
