# Lists, search, and bulk actions > Source: https://docs.clonepartner.com/using/lists-search-and-bulk-actions/ # Lists, search, and bulk actions Envoy's resource lists — Tasks, Jobs, Runs, Connectors, Triggers, Users, AI References, and others — share one set of behaviors: server-side search, filters, sortable columns, cursor-based paging, a per-row action menu, and (on some lists) row selection with bulk actions. This page describes those shared behaviors once; the per-screen pages cover what each list contains. ## Search and filters Every list has a toolbar with a search field (for example **Search tasks...**) and, where relevant, dropdown filters such as **Status** or **Role**. Search runs on the server against that resource's searchable columns, so it matches rows beyond the loaded page. The right side of the toolbar shows the total result count. - Typing in the search field refetches after a short pause; the **X** button clears it. - A filter dropdown always includes an "all" option (for example **All statuses**) to remove that filter. - When filters produce no rows, the empty state offers **Clear filters**. Search, filters, and sort are stored in the page URL, so a filtered view survives refreshes and can be shared as a link. ## Sorting Sortable column headers show an arrow on hover. Selecting a header sorts by that column ascending; selecting it again flips to descending. Sorting applies to the whole server-side result set, not only the loaded rows. ## Pagination Lists load one page at a time (50 rows by default; the server caps a page at 200). When more rows match, a **Load more** button appears at the bottom with a **Showing X of Y** counter, and each click appends the next page using a server cursor. ## Row actions The ⋯ button at the end of a row opens that resource's action menu — for example **Edit**, **Duplicate**, **Export**, **Archive** or **Restore**, and a destructive action such as **Delete permanently** separated at the bottom. Destructive actions always open a confirmation dialog first. Actions you lack permission for are hidden; viewers see no action column on mutation-gated lists. ## Selection and bulk actions On lists that support bulk actions, a checkbox column appears for users who can mutate. Checking rows replaces the toolbar with a bar showing **N selected**, a **Clear** link, and the available bulk action buttons. Selection has two scopes: - **Page** — the rows you explicitly checked. The header checkbox selects everything currently loaded. - **All matching** — when the whole page is selected and more rows match the current search and filters, the bar offers **Select all N matching**. The bulk action then applies to every server-side match, including rows not loaded on screen. Changing the search, filter, or sort clears the selection, so the scope always reflects the query you can see. ## Worked example: export tasks in bulk 1. Open **Tasks** and set the **Status** filter to **Archived** (or enter a search term) to narrow the list. 2. Check the header checkbox to select the loaded page. If more tasks match, select **Select all N matching** in the bar below. 3. Select **Export** in the bulk bar. Envoy downloads the selected task definitions as an `.ndjson` bundle and clears the selection. The same bundle export is available per row (⋯ → **Export**) — row and bulk actions on a list always do the same thing at different scales. :::callout{type="tip"} Before a destructive bulk action, check the count in the confirmation dialog against the toolbar's result count. With all-matching scope selected, the action covers every match on the server, not just the rows you can see. ::: ## Related - [Tasks and task runs](/using/tasks-and-runs/) — the list used in the example above - [Users, roles, and settings](/using/users-and-settings/) — who can see mutation and bulk controls - [Bundles: export and import](/building/bundles/) — what the exported task bundle contains and how to import it
