As a practitioner, you'll often need to add one or many files to several clients at a time. Choose clients to copy existing files from Internal or My Files to clients with Bulk Copy Files. Verify a successful bulk copy in the Activity Log.

Helpful Tips:

  • There is no way to undo the Bulk Copy File action.

  • You cannot copy a file to active and inactive clients at the same time.

  2. Click the file at the beginning of your list.

The feature is only available for files. You cannot Bulk Copy folders yet. An error message populates when a folder is selected, rather than a file.
