Bulk Edit Shortcut Stories from a Focused Table
Select Shortcut Stories using their checkboxes, then use Edit # Stories to apply a common change. Shortcut supports a maximum of 500 Stories in one bulk edit.
Use an account that can edit Stories. First define a narrow selection, such as one Epic or Label; Observers cannot make changes.
Example: assign the Billing Team to 18 mislabeled billing cleanup Stories, leaving unrelated customer requests outside the selection.
Step-by-step guide
Open the smallest useful scope
Navigate to the relevant Epic, Iteration or Label and show its Stories Table. This makes a bounded migration easier to review than selecting from the entire workspace.
Inspect the candidate rows
Read titles and current metadata before selecting. Remove records that need a different destination so one shared change will be valid for every selected Story.
Select and open the editor
Use the left-side checkboxes in the Table, or checkboxes on Story cards. Click Edit # Stories and confirm its count matches your intended set, within the 500-Story limit.
Apply and verify the change
Choose the intended field value in the bulk editor and apply it. Reopen representative Stories and confirm only the selected records changed; large updates may take time.
Common mistakes
Selecting an entire column casually
Column selection can include more Stories than a visible handful. Check the selected count and records before applying a shared change.
