# Modify Naming Conventions in Patch My PC Cloud

*Applies to: Patch My PC Cloud*

Once you have created naming conventions in Patch My PC (PMPC) Cloud, you can modify them as required.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Important**

Once you’ve saved any changes to your existing Naming Conventions, these changes will apply to all deployments created from this point forward.

Any existing deployments are not automatically updated until the next sync happens, which by default is daily at 2 AM local time, based on the country you selected when you onboarded to Patch My PC (PMPC) Cloud.

If you want to apply the changes to any existing deployments before the next sync runs, you can either [Edit a Deployment](/patch-my-pc-cloud/deployments/manage-deployments/edit.md) or [Recreate a Deployment](/patch-my-pc-cloud/deployments/manage-deployments/recreate.md). Either of these actions will apply the new naming conventions to the deployment.
{% endhint %}

To modify Naming Conventions:

1. Navigate to **Settings | Naming**.

2. Click on the relevant tab for the type of apps whose naming convention you want to modify.<br>

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.patchmypc.com/patch-my-pc-cloud/manage/settings/naming-conventions/modify.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
