Restrictions for naming files and objects in Studio Server

When creating, editing, or adding users, files or any type of other object in Studio Server, be aware of the following restrictions:

• The name cannot be longer than 63 characters
• Some characters are not allowed

Name length restriction

Objects stored in Studio Server cannot have a name that is longer than 63 characters.

When a name is entered that is longer than 63 characters in the Maintenance pages or in any of the client applications, characters after position 63 are automatically removed.

Invalid characters

An object in Studio Server may not contain any of the following characters:

Character	Description
'	Single quote - straight
`	Single quote - back
‘	Single quote open - curly
’	Single quote close - curly
"	Double quote - straight
“	Double quote open - curly
”	Double quote close - curly
~	Tilde
!	Exclamation mark
@	At
#	Pound / number / hash
$	Dollar
%	Percent
^	Carat
*	Asterisk
\	Backslash
/	Forward slash
|	Pipe / bar
:	Colon
;	Semi-colon
<	Less than
>	More than
?	Question mark

When typing any of these characters in the client applications, the character is automatically removed.

Integration with Assets

Another way of adding files to Studio Server is by adding them from WoodWing Assets.

However, fewer characters are considered to be invalid in Assets than in Studio. When a file is added from Assets to Studio therefore, the name of the file in Assets Server is adjusted by removing those characters that are invalid in Studio.
