# How to: Update a thing

Once we've created new things and we'd like to update them just like when deleting a thing we need to target the thing(s). The Update a Thing action can target one or multiple items, depending on your filter, Which is useful is you'd like to Bulk update things in your table. 

Let's see an example, where we have our "posts" in a Repeating Group and we'd like to update it's content.

We can setup a workflow, when the MultilineInput's value has changed: update the related field in Supabase.&#x20;

The field "Refresh Data" (true/false) is a separate feature which allow better control. Here's the breakdown:

* Enable Realtime is true and Refresh Data is false: Data will be returned via Realtime.
* Enable Realtime is true and Refresh Data is true: Data will be returned via Realtime and not via the Refresh Data function
* Enable Realtime is false and Refresh Data is false: Query will not be refreshed
