Is there a way to name the results folder without the appended time stamp? For my runs, it generates the folder as eligibility-1454344514670. I want it to be just, ‘eligibility’. And more specifically, I would like to set it using the Maven extension. Here is my pom.xml  
Thank you in advance!

A work around could be to use rename the folder after execution

`

report

`

This will create report in target/gatling/results/report123456 folder

Rename it

`  
mv target/gatling/results/report\* target/gatling/results/site

`

Thanks  
Subin

I tried changing the conf value you mentioned. For me the folder name still didn’t change. It’s not appending the text to my folder name.
