# Bulk Edit

Many applications only allow for single edits, such as inserting, updating, or deleting one row at a time. However, PowerTable offers the 'bulk edit' feature that enables you to edit and delete values across multiple cells simultaneously. 

With bulk editing, you can consistently update a common attribute across all entities, ensuring data integrity.

1. To edit multiple cells, select the required cells. To select all the rows in the table or remove the selection, click on the selector at the header.
2. After selecting the rows, click on **Edit** to open the bulk editor.
3. The Bulk Editor pop-up opens where you can specify the new value for the required fields and then click **Apply.**
4. Click on **Save** to save the changes and sync to the source database.

In this way, you can edit multiple cells/rows simultaneously using bulk editing.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.powertable.com/explore-powertable/working-with-powertable/basic-table-operations/bulk-edit.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
