Built in Bulk Command to Automatically Identify the Same File across Different Thoughts and Then Copy All of Them into Their Respective Thoughts in One Step. #100229

Hello Al,

Thank you for writing in.

There is not really a built in bulk command to automatically identify the same file across different thoughts and then copy all of them into their respective thoughts in one step.

The most practical path in version 15 would be to use Cerebro to help identify them. For example, you could ask something like:

• “Show me a list of thought names that have a file named xyz.doc attached.”
• “Which thoughts contain attachments with the same filename?”
• “Find all thoughts with duplicate attachment names.”

That can help you locate where the repeated files are attached so you can then decide how you want to reorganize them.

If your goal is to consolidate those files into a single thought or review which thoughts contain the same attachment, Cerebro is probably the easiest starting point.

Best regards,

John
