Bulk Replace now available
Bulk Replace enables you to find and replace multiple instances of a word or phrase across your Workiva Documents, Spreadsheets, and Presentations in a single click, with the flexibility to include or exclude important content types such as Links and Formulas.
To learn more, see this Workiva Support page: Use find and replace.
Consolidation of manual and linked placeholders
When a document includes both a locally created placeholder and a linked placeholder with the same name, they now merge automatically into one unified placeholder. This update removes duplicates from the Placeholders panel and ensures consistent data updates—one connection now refreshes every instance of that placeholder across your document.
To learn more, see this Workiva Support page: Use content placeholders.
Remove all links (Bulk link removal)
You can now remove all source and destination links from a document—or from selected sections—with a single action. Bulk link removal works across all content types, including text, tables, charts, and spreadsheets. Formatting is preserved, and locked sections are skipped automatically. Use this feature to save time, ensure consistency, and prepare documents before publishing or sharing.
To learn more, see this Workiva Support page: Create a link.

Return version at which Explorer content is deprecated from Query
Queries that use Sustainability Explorer as a source can now include a "Deprecated at version" field to return the version number at which content was deprecated with no new Current version to replace it.
