How to bulk change component attributes

[Charlie Hite]

Strangely it looks like all you can do from the component list field when there are multiple selected is to either archive or delete. 

How do I update type, or owner team, or even star?

Hi, @Charlie Hite !

You're correct regarding the actions that you can execute in bulk for components using the current Compass UI - although there are shortcuts that would allow you to perform some of those modifications inline in your search results, like adding an owner team, or starring the component of that row in a single click (hover over starred and you'll see the star toggle for components that aren't part of your favorites yet).

There are some other mechanisms to modify components in bulk, that have automation and scale in mind, such as imports for bulk updates from CSV files, or using the Compass GraphQL API for bulk component updates.
