For specify this question,I create a temporary object in folder tem,and named it identity:

CloudDeploy[
 FormFunction[{"x" -> <|"Input" -> "Apple"|>}, 
  Identity], "tem/identity"]

CloudObject[https://www.wolframcloud.com/objects/user***/tem/identity]

I get it with name form.We can check it by

CloudObjects["tem"]

CloudObject[https://www.wolframcloud.com/objects/f0c5a7f1-7124-4a0b-8c64-cd0ebae72350]

I get it with UUID form,I promise this both forms is on behalf of a same cloud object.But If I just know the UUID,how to know its name?And vice-versa.

Looking through Names["System`Cloud*"], I found CloudObjectInformation. I think this is what you're looking for.

obj = CloudDeploy[
  FormFunction[{"x" -> <|"Input" -> "Apple"|>}, Identity], 
  "tem/identity"];

Here's its UUID:

CloudObjectInformation[obj, "UUID"]

"8112805a-013b-46b9-bdc4-2b20b037d795"

Here's its path:

CloudObjectInformation[obj, "Path"]

"user-****/tem/identity"

If I only know the UUID and want the path:

uuid = "8112805a-013b-46b9-bdc4-2b20b037d795";
CloudObjectInformation[CloudObject[URLBuild[{$CloudBase, "objects", uuid}]], "Path"]

"user-****/tem/identity"

  • $\begingroup$ Thanks for your undocumentational function,I don't know how do you guess the "Path",I just have tried CloudObjects["tem"]["Properties"] ,Inspiring. :) $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @yode I ran CloudObjectInformation with 1 argument first and it gave a whole table of data, with uuid and path as elements. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Since WL 12.1, the Information function now does the same thing, and is calling CloudObjectInformation under the hood. In the documentation you can see this under Examples > Scope > System Objects. $\endgroup$
