Bulk updates allow a user to make mass changes Not all fields are available in the bulk edit form but most can be changed. When bulk editing only fields that are checked will be sent as part of of the request. Unchecked fields will be left alone.
Some useful scenarios for bulk editing are:
- Changing the tags of an asset.
- Mass updating the share, edit, print properties of an asset.
- Setting a base name of a few assets (and then updating them individually afterwards)
- Changing the description of a group of assets.
- Changing the private status of assets.
Notes on bulk editing
- When updating tags on bulk edit the previous tags on an asset will be fully replaced. Therefore if the previous tags were "demo", "news", "adventure" and a list of "demo", "sample", "misc" is entered the "news" and "adventure" tags will be dropped.
- Name and description fields on bulk updates will overwrite each property respectively for all assets being edited.
