Is it not possible to bulk add an existing value to a multi value field? Seems odd that wouldn't be possible.

    Hi @Brad Krause heard this one before, seems technically difficult but I'll go knock some doors about it again!

    Hi Mike, have you guys gotten any news on this issue? Being able to add a new value into multiple columns at once, without deleting the existing values, would be a super helpful feature. Thanks for letting us know here.

    I agree @Nathalie Mayer but unfortunately no news :( it has not been prioritised yet compared to other requests by our users. I will point this out to the team again but can't make any promises on the priority :(

    Another vote for this one. Without this ability we have to review 1,200 records manually.

    Another Vote for this fix. Where we are restricted to linking only one team member to a deal, this offers a work around, but any productivity saving in using the multi option field is currently lost by manually having to chance contact details one by one.

    The solution today is to export the data, update the tags in Excel or Google Sheets, and then reimport the data into Pipedrive. Theoretically this should work, but will know more when I get to try this.

    Please can we get an update on this... it's functionality that is absolutely needed - Add, don't simply replace when bulk editing

    Upvote from me. I think an option alongside Keep/Replace/Remove to just blind 'Add' Additional Values would do the trick.

    Keeping this request alive. Has anyone found a solution to bulk edit (either add to or subtract from ) a multiple options field?
