Hey Guys, just wanted to bump this one too as I have not seen any official response to this. Seems like a common need. Just about any other tool I’ve used allows for moving the data record from one “area” to another:

- The above Jira Example
- Moving between Tables in Notion
- ClickUp - easily moving between lists/Folders and converting those to respective entities

As my Fibery instance grows, I have several situations where I’d like to move one or many Entities around as they are better served elsewhere. I think evolving your set up freely is one of the benefits of Fibery, and you guys let users do this more readily than other tools due to your flexibility. But it seems that you should also be able to evolve your data set up as well, and now, since Entities are locked essentially permanently to an initial structure, this is impossible.

You recently released

…so it would be great if you could also have the option with the Batch view to move Entities to another Type, with the remapping dialogue perhaps a part of that.

Hope you guys intend to bring this functionality out soon, would greatly appreciate guidance!
