Hi, i have a multi checkbox property for every contact. I noticed that if i bulk edit some contacts, i’m not able to add o remove checkboxex leaving the past as it was. For example 10 contats have their multicheckbox property (with 3 checkbox, the first checked). if i select all of them, click on edit, select the property and check the secondo checkbox, the first disappear. how can i do? tnx ---

Hi @gilean, By bulk editing multiple checkboxes properties, you are overwriting existing values. Currently, appending values is only possible in workflows (see [here](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/workflows/choose-your-workflow-actions#set-a-property-value)) or imports (see [here](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/crm-setup/import-data-to-checkbox-properties)). If these do not apply to your use case, you would currently have to manually add the additional option for each contact. Other users have requested this feature in the HubSpot Ideas section of the community, I recommend you upvote and leave a comment with your use case: [https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Bulk-editing-multiple-checkbox-properties/idi-p/270962](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Bulk-editing-multiple-checkbox-properties/idi-p/270962) Cheers!
