Mass Actions in Rails Restful Resources

Question

I am trying to implement a bulk update function in a Rails application, the model I want to update is a backup resource. I need to display a table in which each row is a single resource and has a checkbox. The user can check as many fields as possible, and then select an action for all selected resources, for example, delete, change status, etc.

Thanks.
