Is it possible to change the geoprivacy of existing observations en masse?

Is it possible for me to change the geoprivacy of all my observations without going through and editing them one-by-one?

You can batch edit your observations, although you might only be able to do batches of 200.
Edit observations —> Batch edit —> Select observations —> Edit selected —> Batch operations —> More fields —> Change geoprivacy —> Apply

Two more steps needed: → scroll to bottom of page → Save All :)

Thanks! It does look like you can’t do more than 200 at a time, which is a pain in the butt. Looks like it’s possible to edit the URL string to get to any number between 1 and 200, but anything over 200 just shows 200 results.

Oh well. I’ve got some clicking to do.

I get a 504 gateway timeout error every time I save, but it looks like it is saving correctly, at least based on spot checks. I’m guessing this is because I’m doing a handful of batches of 200 at once. I don’t know if this is worth submitting as a issue/bug report.
