"File Name" Column
The "File Name" column is used to specify the name of the file after it is created. By default, generated files are named the same as the document or spreadsheet.
Files can have unique or identical names. If files have the same name, they will not be replaced but will be stored separately in the folder in Drive.
There are several ways to fill in the "File Name" column:
- Manually. Simply enter text into each cell.
Filling in the "File Name" cell.
- By copying a column. Select the entire column (by clicking on the header), copy it (using the context menu - "Copy"), then select the "File Name" column and paste the text (using the context menu - "Paste"). This way, you can copy the data from the "Name" column, and the file will be named accordingly.

- Sequentially. If you need to name files 1, 2, 3, etc., simply enter "1" in the first row and drag the selection handle (small square at the bottom right corner of the selection) down to fill in the sequence automatically.
