Add field Description using bulk load is possible or not? (Any smarter way )

 
 

Hello, 

 

My company requires a description for any field displayed on the field plane. 

From my research, the only way to add description is to click to the model plane and add the description under properties. 

Ok, it works.....

but the issue is I had like 300 fileds awaiting someone to add description.

Is there a smarter way to import those description to the field? 

Otherwise, I would have to waste a day to manually copy and paste the description.........

 

Thanks in advance

Arti

Hi @agarwala 

Using tabular editor, you should be able to export object properties to a file, edit it in bulk using excel, and then import it back. See this article's "Export object properties to a file" section:

I hope this helps!
