# Edit an existing Playlist
## How to Edit an existing Playlist.
1. Open **Playlists**.
2. Find the playlist by name or item count.
3. Select **Edit**.
#### Update the playlist
You can:
- Change the **Name**.
- Select an Information Display tag to add it.
- Drag item handles to change the playback order.
- Set or clear an item's **Duration** override.
- Use the delete icon to remove an item.
A duration override replaces the Information Display's default duration only in this playlist. The edit form requires at least one item when saving.
#### Save the changes
Select **Update**. Beacon first saves the name, then replaces the playlist's item set with the displayed order and duration overrides. On success, it confirms the update and returns to the Playlists list. Select **Cancel** to leave without saving.
