Bug Description

Description:

When I duplicate a request and attempt to rename it, the new name appears to be applied in the UI. However, as soon as I click the "Save" button, the request name immediately reverts to its previous name (the duplicated name) and is saved with that incorrect name.

Steps to Reproduce:

Go to a collection and duplicate an existing request.
Change the name of the newly duplicated request.
Press the Cmd + S (or Ctrl + S) shortcut to save.
Notice that the name instantly reverts to the name it had before editing.

Deployment Type

Hoppscotch Cloud

Version

Hi, I tried reproducing this issue on the latest main branch locally but couldn’t reproduce it.

Steps I followed:

Created a collection
Created a request
Duplicated the request
Renamed the duplicated request
Saved it

The renamed request persisted correctly and did not revert.

Tested on:
• Windows (local dev setup)
• Brave (Chromium-based)

This might be platform-specific (macOS) or already fixed in newer versions. Happy to re-test if needed.
