Migrating Vault from iCloud to OneDrive, filenames

Help

  1. Restrictions and limitations in OneDrive and SharePoint - Microsoft Support

  2. Two ways I can think of:

  • Write a Templater script that removes invalid characters from your file names. With Automatically update internal links turned on, Obsidian should update links on its own (though I am not 100% sure for multiple file renaming, so test it first)

  • Use the Bases plugin to list all files and add a formula that outputs cleaned filenames. You’ll still need to rename each file manually via right-click, since in Bases file name column can’t be changed directly, but this speeds things up compared to doing every file on its own.

Maybe someone else comes up with a better solution.

EDIT: Maybe also have a look at this.
