Preview & Execute

Overview

After setting filters and selecting an action, you must preview before executing. This shows exactly which products will be affected.

Never Skip Preview

Preview is your only chance to verify the selection before making changes!


Step 1: Preview

Click "Preview Affected Products" to see which products match your filters.

What you'll see:

  • Total number of affected products
  • Product list with ID, reference, and name
  • First 100 products (all will be affected even if more)

Check for:

  • ✅ Correct number of products
  • ✅ Expected products in the list
  • ✅ No unexpected products
Adjust If Needed

If the preview shows wrong products, adjust your filters and preview again.

Product Identification

Use the Reference column to quickly verify you're affecting the correct products. References are often easier to identify than product IDs.


Step 2: Execute

Once preview looks correct, click "Execute Bulk Operation".

Confirmation Dialog

For Add and Update:

  • Standard confirmation: "Are you sure?"
  • Click OK to proceed

For Remove:

  • Extra warning about permanent deletion
  • Confirms you understand it cannot be undone
  • Read carefully before confirming

Processing

  • Operation starts immediately
  • Progress message appears
  • Don't close the browser during processing
  • Wait for success or error message

Processing time:

  • Small operations (10-50 products): seconds
  • Medium (50-200 products): 10-30 seconds
  • Large (200+ products): 30-60+ seconds

After Execution

Success Message

Shows:

  • Operation completed successfully
  • Number of products affected
  • Action performed

What to do:

  • Verify 2-3 products manually to confirm changes
  • Check frontend if needed
  • Note what you did for future reference

Error Message

If something fails:

  • Read the error message carefully
  • Common errors: invalid URL, missing provider, permission issues
  • Fix the issue and try again
  • Preview again before re-executing

Best Practices

  1. Always preview first - even for simple operations
  2. Start small - test with 2-3 products when learning
  3. Double-check Remove operations - they're permanent
  4. Don't close browser during execution
  5. Verify results after execution

Common Issues

Preview shows no products

Reasons:

  • Filters too restrictive
  • No products match criteria
  • Category empty

Solution: Adjust filters and try again

Execution fails

Common causes:

  • Invalid video URL
  • Missing provider configuration
  • Network timeout
  • Permission issues

Solution: Check error message and fix the specific issue

Closed browser during execution

What happens:

  • Some products affected, others not

Solution: Check products manually, re-run if needed with adjusted filters
