# Start multiple workflows in bulk

## Purpose of the article

This article explains how to start multiple workflows in one action.

## Prerequisite

Starting a workflow requires a template to be configured first. Please consult the project manager. For more information, see [Configuration d'un circuit d'approbation (code)](/v2/docs/en/configuration-dun-circuit-dapprobation-interface-json).

## Select documents to process in the workspace

Locate the documents you want to process in the workspace. Select them and click the start icon for a workflow. Select the desired template.

Note 1: Only workflow templates related to the workspace are displayed.

Note 2: The action can also be performed through the Quick Action panel on the right side of the screen.
