Thank community, we appreciate all your involvement on this idea. We understand the ability to bulk export or print attached files would be a huge time-saver, especially for year-end audits, client communication, and general record-keeping.
We’ve evaluated the complexity of this feature against other priorities on our roadmap. Atm, this isn't in our plans however we'd like to explore bulk downloading of files from Xero in the longer term. I'll share an update when we're able to give more attention to this, here.
For the meantime if this is essential for you right now, you may like to explore third-party integrations through our Xero app store which could meet your needs here.

There is a long ongoing topic relating to bulk file export but it is very much tied into a bulk print requirement.
These topics need to be separated as it appears that the issue for Xero is the print function.
If these topics are separated at least we can then get the bulk file download that so many seem to need / want.
And again to be clear this is not a request for downloading invoices and their attachments but a bulk download of the files stored in Xero.An error occurred while saving the comment Rob Storey

Not impressed! Received an email to say my suggestion about bulk downloading files had been added to a previous suggestion. This made me think that it was something Xero were progressing only to sign on here to find the suggestion has been disregarded as too complicated?!
Reading the comments there are quite a lot of people that think this response is unacceptable?

I would like to be able to bulk download files from the directory. Currently you need to open each file and download individually. I would like to see an option where you can select all files in a folder and download them all with a single click.

Why have you merged my comment about bulk file export into this again? Every time you do this the idea gets lost with the bulk print request which you state in this thread is the big problem. I don't want / need the bulk print facility, it is a legal responsibility that I securely store all files and if I can't bulk download this makes it a time consuming task to ensure backups! Please separate these 2 ideas - they a VERY different!
