Q3, 2023 — Bulk Publish/Unpublish
complete

Aurelien Georget
With the release of v4.11 in June 2023, users gained the ability to select and manage multiple entries simultaneously with a single action instead of one-by-one content publishing! However, the first iteration of this feature came with a notable shortcoming which prevented content managers from quickly finding the entries that didn't meet publishing requirements. This resulted in users having to meticulously go through all their entries to identify the one that blocked the publishing process.
To mitigate this inefficiency, we developed a new version of Bulk Publish that clearly flags those entries not ready for publishing. You can now conveniently update them prior to initiating the publishing attempt. This game-changing enhancement boosts productivity, reduces the risk of errors, and simplifies your content release process. Whether you have a blog with numerous posts or an e-commerce site with a vast product catalog, Bulk Publish will undoubtedly be a favorite time-saver for content managers, offering a more user-friendly and efficient experience.

Bulk publish beta has been released. You can try it out with:
npx create-strapi-app@4.11.0-beta.0 my-app --quickstart
Any feedback? Feel free to share it with us in the thread :)
Please note that this feature includes bulk publish and unpublish actions but not bulk create or edit entries. We will work on additional bulk actions later this year.

More default or custom bulk actions

Currently the only supported bulk action is deleting multiple entries. It would be awesome to be able to have more actions like publishing/unpublishing multiple entries and be able to add custom bulk actions through an InjectionZone (or some other direct hook, similar to menus)

Bulk creation / editing of content

It would be phenomenal to have a bulk editing tool in the admin panel, in the likes of a spreadsheet view, to expedite mass changes or additions of content. It also could some sort of connection to Google Spreadsheets.
Today, I manage a fast growing training content set, and had to build a separate front-end in Retool to provide critical productivity tools to my curators, such as the ability to import content from csv and edit content in-place in a table view.

This would be very useful for us as well. And to take it a step further, would be very nice if the bulk edit option could grab all entries that meet a certain criteria. As in, select all rows where a field(s) meets some condition.

Im supporting this idea for bulk editing. i need one time changes to all entries. I do this by sending queries to the database. But writing bootstrap code for one-time batch edits is a waste of time. Sending a query to the database is tiring and dangerous. We need bulk edits to entries.

You can use query api to do so https://docs.strapi.io/developer-docs/latest/developer-resources/database-apis-reference/query-engine-api.html
