Bulk edit data

This article explains how to use the Bulk Edit feature to edit the details of submissions in bulk in your Clappia app.

Consider the below app as an example. Notice the fields in the app.

These are the submissions already present in the app. You can edit the details of these submissions using the Bulk Edit feature present in the Submissions tab itself.

A right panel will be displayed where you can download a blank spreadsheet which contains the fields of your Clappia app.

The blank spreadsheet file with the .xlsx extension will be automatically downloaded. You will get a blank spreadsheet with the App ID as it's name.
