Unable to rename "api_request_tool". As you can see in the screenshot, the "Tool Name" is set to "getCurrentCentralTime", however the sidebar is still showing "api_request_tool".

Thank you for sharing the details. To help troubleshoot, could you confirm if you updated the tool name via the API or only through the UI, and if you have tried refreshing the page or logging out and back in to see if the sidebar updates?

Source:
- [Vapi API Reference: Update Tool](https://docs.vapi.ai/api-reference/tools/update)

Try clearing your browser cache, double-checking the tool settings, waiting a few minutes for updates to apply, or verifying via API..

haven't tried API, but no luck from the UI. can you try it and confirm if it is a known issue on your end and escalate accordingly?

This is what I see in the "Tool Config"
```
{
  "id": "df26bea2-93e8-4400-a071-8a74d90f033d",
  "createdAt": "2025-06-04T04:58:44.107Z",
  "updatedAt": "2025-06-04T05:00:14.910Z",
  "type": "apiRequest",
  "function": {
    "name": "api_request_tool",
    "parameters": {
      "type": "object",
      "properties": {},
      "required": []
    }
  },
  "orgId": "df787025-ca77-4f92-a57a-cfb523c19687",
  "name": "getCurrentCentralTime",
...
}
```
You can see that there are two name keys, "name" and  "function -> name"

Is the above screenshot sufficient? you can see that any new `api_request_tool` i create is listed as `api_request_tool` event though each tool has different name (`getCustomers` in this example)
