SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Updating the same property across many Umbraco documents manually is slow and error-prone, especially when you already have the desired values in a spreadsheet or CSV.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Bulk property updates: Applies a single property alias to many documents using document UUIDs from a CSV id column.
  • Safety with dry-run: Validates mutating operations and shows the intended changes before applying them.
  • Context-friendly responses: Uses the CLI workflow with JSON output and a property-focused update to keep responses compact.

Quick Start

Ask your AI to run a dry-run bulk update using umbraco document csv-update with your partners.csv file and the target property alias, then re-run it without dry-run to apply the changes.
