Rename a cube

You can change the name of a cube to a new, unique name.

Complete the following steps to rename a cube in a semantic model:

  1. Log into the Pentaho User Console (PUC).

  2. Open the Semantic Model Editor by taking one of the following actions:

    • If you are using the Modern Design of PUC, in the menu on the left side of the page, click Semantic Model Editor.

    • If you are using the Classic Design of PUC, click File > Semantic Model Editor.

    The Semantic Model Editor opens.

  3. Open the semantic model that contains the cube you want to rename by completing the following sub steps:

    1. In the Semantic Models list, navigate to the model you want to open by searching or scrolling through the list.

    2. Click Open. The model opens in the canvas.

  4. On the canvas, locate the cube that you want to rename.

    Note: To locate an element in a large semantic model, you can click the Model Structure tab and then navigate to the element by searching or scrolling through the list.

  5. Click the cube name to enter edit mode.

  6. Enter a new, unique name for the cube.

  7. Click Save to save changes to the model.

Note: By changing the name of the cube, previous existing reports built using this cube from this model will no longer work, be cautious doing this action.
