I renamed a bunch of APIs in Xano to remove dashes. I want to go and update my collections, but in the collection configuration panel, all of the APIs are listed with their old names (dashes between words). Can I force WeWeb to get the updated list of APIs from Xano? If not, none of those collections will fetch data. Ther’s a “Refresh” button next to the API name, but it doesn’t fetch the updated names. Thanks.

Hi @fredo22 👋

Did you publish the changes in Xano?

 ![CleanShot 2024-01-18 at 16.34.48@2x](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/weweb/original/2X/f/f5c48df214069a99ad8565b9f55ec648b2c7aeab.png)

Just tried it in one of my projects and, after renaming the API endpoint to `/content-2`, I had to:

1. publish the change in Xano _and_
2. select the new endpoint name in WeWeb

Is that what you were trying to do?

Ha! LOL. Thanks @Joyce - I saved my changes in Xano, but forgot to publish them!
