Using bulk actions in your Shopify admin
You can perform actions in bulk in the Shopify admin. For example, you can fulfill many orders, delete many files, or publish many products in one action.
You can use bulk actions on many pages of your Shopify admin, including Orders, Products, Customers, and Discounts.
The more information you try to bulk change at one time, the longer your bulk changes will take to complete. You can also use a CSV file to bulk edit a larger number of list items for your products, your inventory, or your customers. After your CSV file is uploaded in your Shopify admin, you receive a confirmation email from Shopify at the email account that you used to set up your Shopify store.
