Where is `triggerBulkAction`? How can I trigger the bulk action helper in the smart view? Can `triggerSmartAction` take an array of records as input?

Hello @austinrupie,

You can use `triggerSmartAction` as documented [here](https://docs.forestadmin.com/documentation/reference-guide/views/create-and-manage-smart-views#triggering-a-smart-action)

```javascript
<Button::BetaButton
  @type="primary"
  @text="Reschedule appointment"
  @action={{fn this.triggerSmartAction @collection 'Reschedule' record}}
/>

```

The first argument is the `collection` that has the Smart Action. The second argument is the Smart Action name, here `Reschedule` , and the third argument is an array of records or a single one.

I hope it helps 🙂
