Working in a Google Sheets file with dozens of tabs can eat time quickly if you handle each sheet one by one. With bulk operations in Sheets Organizer, you select multiple sheets and apply the same action to all of them at once.
Step 1: Select Many Sheets in Seconds
Start by selecting the sheets you want to act on. You can pick individual tabs or use Select All in the sidebar to choose every sheet in the file. Folders can be selected too to target all sheets inside.

- Individual Selection: Click the checkbox on each sheet
- Select All: Choose every sheet in one click
- Select Folders: Apply actions to all sheets within selected folders
Declutter Fast: Hide, Unhide, or Show Only Selected
Clear the noise and focus. Hide several sheets at once, bring them back with Unhide, or instantly hide everything except the tabs you need with Show only selected.

When you're ready to bring them back, unhide multiple sheets in a single step.

For distraction‑free work, hide everything except your current selection with one click.

Visual Organization at Scale: Color Multiple Sheets
Apply one color to many tabs in a single action. Use consistent colors for teams, projects, or statuses so related sheets stand out immediately.

Control Access: Restrict Editing, Show Warning, or Unprotect
Protect multiple sheets together, add a warning prompt before edits, or remove protection in bulk. These safeguards help keep important tabs safe without repetitive steps.

Use a lighter touch by enabling a warning prompt across selected sheets.

If you need to lift restrictions, unprotect all selected sheets at once.

Clean Up in One Click: Delete Multiple Sheets
When it’s time to tidy up, remove many sheets at once instead of deleting them one by one.

Duplicate at Scale: Copy to One or Many Spreadsheets
Create duplicates of selected sheets in the current file, copy to one or more existing spreadsheets, or generate new spreadsheets and send copies there—all at once.
Duplicate selected sheets right inside the same spreadsheet.

Send copies to one or several existing spreadsheets in Drive.

Create a brand‑new spreadsheet and copy the selected sheets there.

Need many new files at once? Create multiple spreadsheets—one per selected sheet.

Reorganize Quickly: Move Sheets to New or Existing Files
Relocate selected sheets to other spreadsheets in bulk. Create a new file and move them there, choose existing files, or create multiple new files—one per sheet—in a single flow.
Move selected sheets into existing destination spreadsheets—no manual dragging needed.

Spin up a fresh spreadsheet and move your selected sheets into it.

Create multiple new spreadsheets at once—each receiving one of the selected sheets.
