Hi,

We can use rename() method to rename a file or directory source 'src' (actual name) to destination 'dst'(new name).  And this method does not return any value.

Use the following syntax:

os.rename(src, dst)

In your case, you can use the following code:

import os
os.rename('abc.txt', 'xyz.kml')
