OpenStudio Sketchup - assign construction of multiple surfaces

Hello,

I am very new to SketchUp and OpenStudio and am trying to see if there is a quicker way to assigning surface attributes such as construction, boundary condition, and sun and wind exposure.

I am trying to select a whole bunch of surfaces together that are part of the same space and assign them with the same construction, boundary condition, sun and wind exposure all at once.

I can't seem to shift select surfaces in the OpenStudio Inspector, and when I select multiple surfaces in Sketchup, the Inspector only lets me edit them as a space.

It feels like there should be a way to do this instead of selecting each surface one by one and assigning construction etc. one at a time.

Really appreciate the advice!
