Clear a selection after a batch action
Clear a selection after a batch action with a controlled test, clear verification, limits, and recovery steps.
Last reviewed
Clear a selection after a batch action is easier to verify when you use one controlled item and confirm the account, workspace, source, and destination at each step. This guide follows the current Dosya workflow and identifies the result you should see.
Before you start
- Open a Dosya file or search-results list in the current released client.
- Confirm the active account and workspace, then identify completed or cancelled batch action with rows still highlighted.
- Use a small non-confidential test item and record its current state before changing it.
- Keep passwords, API keys, recovery codes, private links, personal data, and confidential file contents out of screenshots and support messages.
Steps: clear a selection after a batch action
- Open a Dosya file or search-results list and confirm the active account and workspace.
- Locate completed or cancelled batch action with rows still highlighted and verify its name or identifying details.
- Use Clear selection or leave selection mode, then verify the batch toolbar and highlights disappear.
- Read the displayed warning, permission, progress, or confirmation state before leaving the screen.
- Confirm that a later action cannot accidentally reuse the old selection.
- Refresh, fetch, or reopen the relevant view once to verify the result persisted.

Expected result
The controlled workflow completes and a later action cannot accidentally reuse the old selection. The result remains visible after a refresh, reconnect, or return to the relevant screen.
Limits and important details
- Available controls depend on the current client version, account plan, workspace role, policy, and selected integration surface.
- Processing, indexing, background transfer, provider authorization, or storage accounting can delay a visible result.
- For destructive, access-changing, or automated actions, validate with disposable data before applying the workflow to important files.
Troubleshooting
The expected control is missing. Return to a Dosya file or search-results list, confirm the active workspace, and check that your role and client version support the action.
The operation is rejected or stalls. Read the exact message and check permissions, locks, storage, network state, source availability, and any third-party authorization before retrying.
The result is still unclear. Repeat with one small test item, then contact support with the time, client version, workspace, and a nonsecret error, delivery, or request identifier.
