# Bulk actions on applications

# Bulk actions on applications

Perform actions on multiple applications at once from the Applications table. Bulk actions reduce manual effort when managing large numbers of applications.

## Selecting applications

Select the checkbox on any row to select an application.

Select the checkbox in the header row to select every application on the current page. A banner shows the count, for example **60 of 95 Applications are selected on this page**. Select **Select all 95 Applications** to extend the selection across every page.

With one or more applications selected, the toolbar switches to bulk action mode and displays **Bulk Edit** and **Bulk Update**.

2. Select **Bulk Edit**.
3. Choose a field from the dropdown.

## Scope of bulk actions

Bulk actions:

* Apply only to selected applications
* Respect the active tab, view, and filters
* Update application metadata only

Bulk actions do not modify table layout or view settings.

## When to use each option

Use **Bulk Edit** for a quick update to one field across selected applications.

Use **Bulk Update** for changes across multiple fields, or when working with a large number of applications using a CSV file.
