How do I change status or assign multiple issues at once?

Short Answer: Select multiple issues using the checkboxes; the selection bar appears with Change status and Assign to controls to update items in bulk.

PreRequisites

1. Be signed in

2. You have permission to change issue status or assignees

Steps

1. Check the boxes beside each issue row you want to update (or use the header checkbox to select all visible rows).
   A selection bar appears showing something like “8 selected”.

2. In the selection bar, click Change status and choose the new status (e.g., Resolved, Closed, Open, In progress, Rejected).
   The selected issues’ statuses are updated.

3. To assign, click Assign to in the same selection bar and pick the assignee from the list.
   The Assignee column updates for the selected issues.

4. To cancel without changes, click Clear selection in the selection bar.
   All checkboxes are cleared and the bar closes.

Troubleshooting

1. Bulk controls aren’t visible after selecting issues.
   Likely Cause: No rows actually selected or the UI didn’t register the selection.
   Action: Uncheck and re-check rows, use the header checkbox to select visible rows, or refresh and try again.

2. Status/assignee change failed for some items.
   Likely Cause: You lack permission for certain issues or they’re locked by another workflow.
   Action: Confirm your edit permissions for the repository or check with the review owner.

Note: Bulk actions apply only to the currently selected rows (and only the current page unless you explicitly select items on other pages).
