Is it possible to batch rename files in an iCloud folder using the Files app on iPadOS?
On macOS, there's an option to rename multiple files at once by applying different criteria, such as adding specific text with sequential numbering, or including the file's creation date in the name.
Is there a similar feature available in iPadOS, either within the Files app or through a specific third-party app?

👋 Hi, thanks for participating in the Apple Communities
From what you tell us, you want to be able to rename files automatically when you add them on your iPad.
As far as I understand, there is no built-in iPadOS feature that allows this, however, you can use a custom shortcut to accomplish this.
Shortcuts are small programs that you can customize and automate to run on your iPhone manually and/or automatically, it is completely free and comes integrated as part of iPadOS.
I leave you a link to the Shortcuts app documentation in case you find it useful: Shortcuts User Guide - Apple Support
If you feel more confident you can also reach our community in English here: Official Apple Support Community
🙂 I hope to have helped you and I remain at your disposal for further questions.

👋 Hola, gracias por participar en las Comunidades Apple en Español
Por lo que nos comentas, deseas poder renombrar archivos de manera automática al añadirlos en su iPad.
Hasta donde tengo entendido, no existe una función integrada de iPadOS que permita esto, sin embargo, puedes usar un atajo personalizado para lograrlo.
Los atajos son pequeños programas que puede personalizar y automatizar para que se ejecuten en su iPhone de manera manual y/o automática, es totalmente gratuito y viene integrado como parte de iPadOS.
Le dejo un enlace a la documentación de la app Atajos por si le es de utilidad: Manual de uso de Atajos - Soporte técnico de Apple (ES)
🙂Espero haberle ayudado y quedo a su disposición para otras dudas
Thank you very much for the answer, isaaker!
