    RE: How to remove GUID from the share point document name

    Hi Abhi9,

    There is a way in which you can change the global setting for this within the application, but it requires making some modifications to your CRM/D365E Organisations global settings.

    To change the default behavior of the folder name we need to update CreateSPFoldersUsingNameandGuid property of organization to false.

    CRM’s/D365E’s Organisation settings are not exposed within an accessible format natively within the application.

    You can refer the following link to chage it through code:

    However,To make changes to these settings within the application, the best tool available for both Online and On-Premise versions of the application is the Organization Settings Editor.

    Now if you click the “Document” of any record, it will create a folder name without the GUID. This will happen, only for the new Document folders. For old folders, you can manually change the name of the folder.
