# Allows updating the filename of a file in the fileUpdate mutation.

As of API version **2023-07** we have added a new field called `filename` to the `fileUpdate` mutation. This new field allows you to update the `filename` of both generic files and images.

To learn more about the `fileUpdate` mutation, visit the GraphQL reference in our [developer documentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/2023-07/mutations/fileUpdate).
