Hello,

I was wondering if it's possible to easily update a version of a document on hundreds of ongoing instances of a process? if yes, what's the easiest way to do so?

I'd also like that the same process has the new version of the&nbsp;document so I won't have to make more updates.

Thanks a lot,

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Hello,&nbsp;  
yes it is possible.

You have to do :&nbsp;

1/ search documents (from the caseId I supposed?)

2/ update it via the API

You can use a direct script on towntruck, or develop a plugin in truckmilk

Best,
