title: Easiest way to rename a metric in datadog?
body: <p>I'm using a <code>statsd.timed</code> to send some time metrics to datadog. These metrics are being used in a few Datadog dashboards. Changing the metric name being sent is straightforward and can be done by updating the name of the metric in the statsd.timed call/decorator in the code, however, the old metric name may already be in use in existing datadog dashboards. </p>
  
  <p>Is there a quick and easy way to rename a metric in Datadog so that all dependencies such as Dashboards using the metric are also updated, without having to go through each dashboard and updating them independently?</p>
