How to Bulk Update in Jira

Updated on:
May 11, 2026

Madhav Bhandari
Use this interactive demo to learn how to bulk update multiple Jira issues at once.

Quick summary

Bulk updating in Jira lets you select multiple issues in List view and apply changes to all of them simultaneously. Use the Edit action with the right sidebar to update fields across issues in one step and confirm with Save.


Steps

  1. Head over to the List view from the left sidebar.
  2. Review the checkboxes that appear before your issues in the list.
  3. Select the issues you want to bulk update using the checkboxes.
  4. Click on Edit to open the bulk editing options.
  5. Make the required changes in the right sidebar that appears.
  6. Hit Save to apply your changes.
  7. The Bulk Update action will be performed and you will receive a success prompt.

📌 Why this matters

Jira's bulk update feature saves teams significant time by letting them edit multiple issues simultaneously instead of one by one. Using the List view and the Edit action, project managers and team leads can apply status changes, assignee updates, or field edits across dozens of issues in seconds. This is especially valuable during sprint planning, backlog grooming, or when reorganizing large volumes of work. Mastering bulk updates in Jira directly reduces manual effort and keeps project data accurate and up to date.
