Dynamic file name generation for a plurality of devices

Abstract:

Approaches for dynamic file name generation are provided. A computer-implemented method includes: receiving, by a naming server, user input defining a file naming convention; associating, by the naming server, the file naming convention with a user account; receiving, by the naming server, a first request for a file name from a first user device associated with the user account; generating, by the naming server, a first file name using the file naming convention in response to the first request; transmitting, by the naming server, the first file name to the first user device; receiving, by the naming server, a second request for a file name from a second user device associated with the user account, the second user device being different from the first user device; generating, by the naming server, a second file name using the file naming convention in response to the second request; and transmitting, by the naming server, the second file name to the second user device.
