# Mass edit in lists

Select multiple records in a list and apply bulk operations such as edit, delete, or app-specific actions.

## Selecting records[​](#selecting-records "Direct link to Selecting records")

Choose records for mass editing using these methods:

* **Individual selection** - click the checkbox next to each record you want to modify
* **Select all** - use the "Select all" option to choose every record in the current view
* **Filtered selection** - apply filters first, then select all to work with a specific subset
