Change product status in bulk

Features · Updated Oct 9, 2026

Edify can set many products to Active, Draft, or Archived at once. For example, you can archive last season's products or publish a batch of drafts.

Change status

  1. Open Bulk Edit. Or click Change product status on the Dashboard, which opens Bulk Edit with Status and Active already picked.
  2. Under What to edit, choose Products.
  3. Add filters for the products you want, for example Status is Draft plus Tag is New arrivals. See Choose which products to edit with filters.
  4. In Edit actions, set Field to Status. The operation is Set status.
  5. In Value, pick the status you want. It starts on Active, so to set products to Active you can leave it as it is.
  6. Type a Task name and check the Preview. Products whose status will change show a badge such as 1 change. Click one to see its old status → new status, for example Draft → Active.
  7. Click Run now or Schedule.

All matching products list for 8 snowboards with Status set to Active. The draft and archived snowboards show a 1 change badge, and the active ones show no badge

Value left on Active. Only the draft and archived products will change, so only they have a badge.

What each status means

  • Active: the product is available on the sales channels it's published to.
  • Draft: the product is hidden from customers while you work on it.
  • Archived: the product is hidden and moved out of your active product list.
