>>> [!note] Migrated issue <!-- Drupal.org comment --> <!-- Migrated from issue #3546656. --> Reported by: [breidert](https://www.drupal.org/user/135619) >>> <p>Implement AI-powered functionality to automatically generate descriptive, SEO-friendly filenames for uploaded media files in Drupal. Currently, uploaded files often retain random or non-descriptive filenames (e.g., "IMG_20240315_143827.jpg" or "DSC_0001.png"), which negatively impacts SEO performance and content management workflows.</p> <h2>Goals &amp; Guiding Principles</h2> <p><strong>Primary Goal:</strong> Transform random, cryptic filenames into meaningful, descriptive names that improve SEO and content discoverability.</p> <p><strong>Key Benefits:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Enhanced SEO through descriptive file URLs</li> <li>Improved content management and organization</li> <li>Better accessibility and user experience</li> <li>Streamlined bulk file management workflows</li> </ul> <p><strong>Guiding Principles:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Maintain original file integrity and metadata</li> <li>Provide user control and confirmation before changes</li> <li>Support batch operations for efficiency</li> <li>Ensure compatibility with existing Drupal media workflows</li> </ul> <h2>MVP Functionality</h2> <p>1. Individual File Renaming:</p> <ul> <li>Add "Generate AI Filename" button to media image edit forms</li> <li>AI analyzes image content to suggest descriptive filename</li> <li>Display suggested filename with edit capability before applying</li> </ul> <p>2. Bulk Operations:</p> <ul> <li>Extend Drupal's bulk operations to include AI filename generation</li> <li>Select multiple media items for batch filename updates</li> <li>Progress indicator and error handling for bulk operations</li> <li>Option to review all suggestions before applying changes</li> </ul> <p>Technical Requirements:</p> <ul> <li>Integration with Drupal's media entity system</li> <li>Preservation of file extensions and MIME types</li> <li>Update of all references and links automatically</li> <li>Logging of filename changes for audit trail</li> </ul> <p>The result of this recipe is a Drupal Recipe as defined below. Potentially a contrib module has to be created to support the functionality, or existing contrib modules should be used and extended.</p> <h2>Next Steps</h2> <ul> <li>Define user story for AI Image Filename (This document)</li> <li>Create the project: <a href="https://www.drupal.org/project/ai_recipe_image_filename">https://www.drupal.org/project/ai_recipe_image_filename</a></li> <li>Create MVP version of feature</li> <li>Documentation/Demos</li> <li>Gather feedback</li> <li>Start on Post MVP features</li> </ul> > Related issue: [Issue #3545444](https://www.drupal.org/node/3545444) > Related issue: [Issue #3541825](https://www.drupal.org/node/3541825)
