How to undo bulk changes?

Question

I created a bulk update to the AC portion of all stories - and didn't realize it would not be additional to the AC but actually replace the AC verbiage.

Is there a way to undo this bulk change?  Without having to go and update all 100 stories?

Thank you

I created a suggestion for adding the capability to undo bulk change, feel free to vote for it; hopefully it will gain some traction:

Here are steps to repeat my issue:

- I logged in

- I opened my usual "story backlog" view

- I clicked in the link in the left column to create a new epic

- I dragged a single story (no other stories were highlighted in blue, nor was there a red badge with a "bulk move" ticket count)

- Jira then re mapped my entire backlog to this new ticket, i.e. it acted as if I did a bulk move (when I know better not to do that)

The idea of "undo" won't really help you here, you need to understand what you did and how the software understands what you asked it to do.

I am not sure what you mean be "this was treated as if I had dragged everything" - what "everything"?  What did you drag into the Epic and what actually got moved into it?
