We are creating a naming convention for the data gateway connection. We have a challenge that existing connections are not comply with the naming convention. We are not able to rename them but only to delete existing connection and create new connections. This will cause downtime and also a complex procedure which is easily brings in mistakes.

We wish that we can have the ability to rename the connections on data gateway.

Can't believe the Gateway has been out there for over a year and we can't do this basic thing.

Hi, I'm deleting and recreating a datasource because it can't be renamed. This seems like a most basic need missing. Thanks.
