Batch actions

Download, move, duplicate, convert to subtitles, tag and delete multiple files in one-go.

With large projects, the ability to select multiple files and manage them saves a lot of time - and who doesn't love saving time? 😄

  • Select your files.

  • Select the option required in the top-right of the dashboard.


Downloading your files

  • Select the files you want to export.

  • Click Export in the top-right of the Dashboard.

  • Exporting multiple files will download as a folder on your computer.


Moving your files

  • Select your files you'd like to move.

  • Click Move.

  • Select the new location in the pop-out that appears. You can move your files to a folder within your project, to a different project, or to your own private folders .


Duplicating your files

  • Select your files you'd like to duplicate.

  • Click the 3 dots (...) in the top-right of the dashboard.

  • Click on Duplicate.

  • Your files will appear in the same folder with [Duplicate] in front of them.


Convert into subtitles

  • Select your transcripts you want to convert into subtitles.

  • Click the 3 dots (...) in the top-right of the dashboard.

  • Click on Convert to subtitles.

  • Your subtitles will appear as a separate file in the same folder.

💡 Can I convert my subtitles into transcripts?

At the moment, it is not possible to convert a subtitle file into a transcript.

If you need both a transcript and subtitles from the same video, we'd recommend uploading the file as a Transcript, making any corrections you need, and then convert it to a Subtitle file.


Tagging your files

  • Select the files you wish to tag

  • Click the 3 dots (...)

  • Select Tags


Deleting your files

  • Select your files you'd like to delete

  • Click the 3 dots (...)

  • Click Move to trash

  • Your files will be archived in the trash where you can later permanently delete them.
