Hello! I wanna know if exist a way to do a bulk with an option like “Set values attributes”. I was reading the documentation [https://docs.losant.com/devices/bulk-actions/](https://docs.losant.com/devices/bulk-actions/) but i don’t find a answer to my problem. I have 500 devices aprox and i need set a initial value.  
Thanks 🙂

We don’t have a first-class method for setting a ‘default’ value on a device attribute. You could, however, write a simple workflow to get that value in there …

1. [Virtual Button Trigger](https://docs.losant.com/workflows/triggers/virtual-button/).
2. [Device: Get Node](https://docs.losant.com/workflows/data/get-device/) that fetches the devices you want to set the value for.
3. [Loop Node](https://docs.losant.com/workflows/logic/loop/), running in [parallel mode](https://docs.losant.com/workflows/logic/loop/#run-loop-iterations-in-parallel), iterating over the devices returned by the Device: Get Node.
4. (In the loop) [Device: State Node](https://docs.losant.com/workflows/outputs/device-state/) reporting the value for the attribute in question, for the current iteration’s device.
