Rename or move a Viz file through Template Wizard

[ruimac]

I know I can send commands to Viz from Template Wizard through QuerySingle or SendSingleCmd.
Is there any way to control the GraphicHub, renaming a Viz File, or moving it to a different folder?

I think you'll have to have GH REST setup

There are several commands to control the GH, the one I think will help you is MOVE.
to trigger it you write:
<POOL Type> MOVE <String from> <string to>
Example: IMAGE MOVE IMAGE*Vizrt/test/my_image IMAGE*Vizrt/newFolder/my_image
The thing is I'm not sure if this is the right syntax because I couldn't get it to work, but maybe some else can pick it up from here

As far as I know, Template Wizard is mainly intended for controlling Viz Engine and template-related workflows. Operations like renaming Viz files or moving assets within GraphicHub are typically handled through GraphicHub management tools or APIs, not via QuerySingle or SendSingleCmd.

You may want to check whether your version provides a GraphicHub API or scripting interface for asset management tasks.
