Bulk editing of ideas

Hi everyone!

I've done some research but with no success, is there any way to bulk-edit ideas in JPD?

As an example, selecting a couple of ideas and setting a field value for both ideas e.g. Category="My Category".

 

Thank you!

If you select multiple items in list view and set a field, it will do it for all the issues selected.

Even though it seems like only 1 idea is edited, it's applied to all:

CAUTION: In my experience this initiates a full replacement of the field across all ideas, it's not additive.

 

Using your screenshot as an examople, if the first idea already had "Differentiate" as a goal, the second idea had "Delight users" as a goal, and you select both ideas and then add "A custom goal" to the first idea this will not add "A custom goal" to both ideas. Instead, it will make both ideas have "Differentiate" and "A custom goal" -- effectively removing "Delight users" from the second goal.

Both of your goals will now match, but if your intent was to add "A custom goal" to both ideas while leaving the existing data alone, you won't have done that.
