# Take Bulk Actions

Bulk actions are a way for you to change the Incident Statuses for multiple incidents at one shot. You can do this by following the steps below.

**(1)** Pick a **Team** from the team picker on the top of the screen. Move over to the status-wise filters in the **Incident Dashboard**. Click on the incident state for which you need the incidents either **Acknowledged** or **Resolved**.

In this example, we have clicked on the **Triggered** state and will be moving these incidents to the **Acknowledged** state.

**(2)** Check the box under the **Actions** button to select **all** the incidents that are shown in the view. You can also choose to select specific incidents for which you want to take the action.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:**

You will only be able to view a maximum of 20 incidents at once. So, you will only be able to select a maximum of 20 incidents at once. For a more detailed view of incidents, navigate to the [<mark style="color:blue;">Incident List</mark>](/incident-list/incident-list-view.md) page.
{% endhint %}

**(3)** Click on the **Actions** dropdown and select the new incident state that you want the selected incidents to reflect. In this example, we are choosing **Acknowledge**.

**(4)** This will then open a pop-up with the details of the incidents that are selected. You can review and then click **Confirm & Acknowledge**.

Now, the selected incidents will reflect the new incident state.

Similarly, you can also choose to do this to incidents in the Acknowledged state.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:**

When you delete a service, you will have to ensure that there are no incidents in the <mark style="color:red;">`Triggered`</mark> or <mark style="color:red;">`Acknowledged`</mark> states. All incidents should be <mark style="color:red;">`Resolved`</mark>.
