How to Select and Manage Multiple Files at Once

Bulk actions can make it easier to organize large collections of files without handling each item individually.

Select Multiple Items

In your file list, use any available selection controls to choose the files you want to manage. The exact selection gestures may vary by device.

Depending on the interface and permissions, supported actions may include download, move, copy, delete or other file operations.

Inspect the number of selected files and their destination. Avoid running a bulk delete without checking that no important content is included.

Confirm that the expected files were processed, and review Trash if an item was removed unintentionally.

Try selecting fewer items or handling them individually. Some file types, folders or Workspaces may impose different controls.
