Which field types can be used with the mass operation for Replace?

The mass operation for Replace is specific to certain field types that allow for effective bulk updates within a system. In this case, Long Text and Fixed-Length Text fields are appropriate for this operation because they are designed to handle larger amounts of textual data.

Long Text fields can accommodate variable-length, detailed responses, making them suitable for extensive notes or descriptions, while Fixed-Length Text fields are structured to hold text within a predetermined limit, ensuring consistency in data entry.

This capability allows administrators to replace entire contents of these fields across multiple records efficiently, making it a valuable tool for maintaining data integrity or updating descriptions, instructions, or other extensive information.

Other field types, such as choices or numbers, have limitations that prevent them from being effectively used for mass replacements in the same way. For instance, choice fields typically involve predefined options, meaning a replace action would not apply to the core text-based updates. Thus, Long Text and Fixed-Length Text are the only types that fully support the mass Replace operation.
