What is the motivation behind this feature request? Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The ability to bulk select deals for retry, in an effort to save time.
At the moment each deal need to be retried manually by clicking the retry icon next to it on the deals page.
Very time consuming and tedious.

Describe the solution you'd like

Could be something as simple as check-boxes that can be bulk selected by holding in the CTRL (similar to what web-gmail allows)

Describe alternatives you've considered

there is no alternative to doing them one by one in the gui.

Additional context

Thanks for the improvement suggestion. I agree we should improve the web UI to make it easier to bulk-retry.

For now you can use the graphql API directly:

See the example queries at the bottom of the page. You will probably want to do something similar but call dealRetryPaused instead of dealCancel
