Hide Dynamics 365 GUID at the end of the folders name in sharepoint online

Posted on by 55

I am currently working on how to hide the GUID from the folder name in Sharepoint online. When I create a new account/customer in Dynamics 365 and the account is saved in Sharepoint online the folder will have a name like (Accountname_GUIDname), but i don't want the GUID to be displayed. I know Dynamics 365 need it to find the place to store the documents. I have found ways to hide it but only up to crm 2015 not 365.

Is there a way to hide it from the folder name?

Thanks in advance!

    Yes, it's possible, but you will have to use a tool for that, I once wrote a blogpost about this:
