Hello team, is there any way to rename the label that is directly linked to the attribute, say for example below attribute named "Host Company", I wanted to rename the label to Company Host Id because it is linked to the Host ID?

Hello Manny, Thank you for the question. If I understood it correctly, it is not possible to change once it is in LDM. To make sure, I will investigate this internally and will update you here. Thank you for your cooperation.

Thanks @Ismail Karafakioglu, I can update the other 2 labels but not the primary .i.e. the default attribute label

Hi Manny, you should be definitely able to rename those - primary or even secondary label. You just need to go into EDIT mode of the LDM, then "Details" and click into the specific name.
Please note that this will only change how the name itself is displayed. The ID of the attribute remains the same to preserve the data integrity.
The main label is tied to the attribute name but can be renamed too

Hi @Julius Kos, clicking the Host Company won't change to edit mode, clicking the 2 other labels will

Hello Manny, I tested it on my end and also was not able to change one label (others were ok to change) I will ask about it internally and update you here. Thank you.

Thank you

Hi Manny, you need to click to the attribute name and rename it as well in this case as it is tied to the main label with the same ID:
So its only a matter where you need to click. It kind of makes sense that you cannot leave the attribute name different to its main labels name (same ID) . That could lead to some confusion in LDM vs analytics.
So to answer your question - yes, you can change this label. However, if your original question is whether the main label can be changed without also changing the attribute name, the answer is no. 🙂 As per above, this behaviour is expected.

Hi @Julius Kos, but how did you achieve this example you mentioned above where the attribute name and labels are different?

Hi Manny, allow me to step in as my colleague is out of office hours. Yesterday, I had the same issue and I was not able to change the main label as it was tied to the attribute. To be able to change every label, first you need to change the title in the main attribute (The first screenshot before change), I click on bold "Campaign channel id" to change it to "Example" and after that if changes the text label name that was not editable because they are tied. (Second screenshot). The rest of the label names can be changed just like you did yesterday.

Hi @Ismail Karafakioglu, it would be great if you can rename all the labels for flexibility and not being tied to the attribute.
Here is my case, I wanted to keep "Worker" as the main label but I would like to rename the Worker on the dropdown to Worker ID

Hi Manny, sadly, this is not possible as I've mentioned in my previous comment. I have submitted a product feedback on your behalf. Thank you for sharing your experience with our product.
