How to edit multiple documents at once
- Choose a project with the documents you'd like to edit, or if you don't already have the project/documents, please read the knowledge base articles on how to create projects and create documents.
- Select the documents you'd like to edit from the projects view by simply left-clicking them, then select Edit once finished with your selection.
- After selecting Edit, the page will take you inside the Multi-edit screen, where you'll see the document's previews and their inputs. Some documents share the same inputs, and changing this input type will update multiple documents.
- You can select the inputs that you'd like to change on the left-hand side or from the document preview. For example, I changed the Heading input in the gif below, which updated the three documents.
- Select Save once you've made all your changes. Doing so will save all the changes you've made in the documents.
