Use AUTO tool on multiple photos

Dear
I find the automatic tool very practical to use, and it is the first one I use, to then make adjustments to the "autocorrected" image.
I would like to be able to apply automatic correction to several photos at the same time, but make the adjustment that LR deems appropriate for each one, and not be the same for all of them.
That is, as if I open each one and press auto individually.
Is that possible?
Thank you so much

Read my answer again. I did not say you should apply the preset to a selection of images. I said you should apply the preset on import, or define the preset as camera default.

 

For photos already in the catalog, read this (a bit old, but still relevant): https://blog.thomasfitzgeraldphotography.com/blog/2018/1/applying-lightrooms-auto-settings-to-multiple-images

Create a preset that uses 'Auto' (and anything else you always do, such as lens corrections). Then either use this preset as your camera default, or apply it upon import in the import dialog.

Hello johan, thank you. but I don't know how to apply the presset on many images.

If I select many images and apply the preset, it only has an effect on the first photo and if I press "sync", an options window appears, but it does not do "auto" but rather copies the same parameters of the first photo on all the selected photos .
