This article is about the Proxi admin app at app.proxi.co.
Both your Listings page and every collection have a Bulk Edit button that opens your data in a spreadsheet. It works the way you'd expect a spreadsheet to work — and nothing is saved until you click Save, so you can experiment freely.

If you have a very large number of rows, we'll suggest narrowing things down with a search first — you can always click Continue to spreadsheet to edit everything anyway. And if you had a search or filters active when you opened it, you're editing just that slice; a notice above the table will remind you.
Editing Cells
Click a cell and type to replace what's there, or double-click to edit it.
Copy and paste works across many cells at once — including pasting straight from Excel or Google Sheets.
Drag the small handle in a cell's corner to fill the same value down a column.
Click a column header to sort, or use the header menu to filter. Check Wrap text if long values are getting cut off.
Some columns are locked on purpose — like the Proxi ID (used to match rows when you re-import a file) and addresses, which are edited on the item itself so the location stays accurate.
Dropdown Fields and Labels
Cells for dropdown fields and labels show their values as small pills. To change them, click the arrow in the cell and check options off a list — or just type the names, separated by semicolons (for example: Food; Retail).
If you type or paste a name that doesn't exist yet, we won't create it silently. When you save, we'll show you exactly what's new — "Saving will add them" — and you can confirm with Save and Add or cancel and fix a typo.
Saving Your Changes
Changes pile up as you work — the counter above the table shows how many are unsaved.
Made a mistake? Press Cmd/Ctrl + Z to undo, or click Discard to throw away everything unsaved.
Click Save when you're ready. If a particular cell can't be saved, it turns red and stays put — hover over it to see why, fix it, and save again. Everything else goes through.
If you try to close the editor with unsaved changes, we'll check before anything is lost.
A Few More Things
With lots of rows, the table loads in batches — use Load more or Load all at the top to bring in the rest before sweeping edits.
Right-click a row to remove it; the removal happens when you save.
Adding new rows happens outside the spreadsheet — use the Add or Import buttons on the page.
Download CSV exports the table exactly as you see it, respecting your sort and filters.
