Copy text from multiple text boxes at once

How can I copy the text from multiple text boxes at once, in order to paste it in another software?

I have a lot of separated text boxes from which I need the text, and no I can't link them inside Indesign.

Hi, can you confirm:

Yes the text was all typed in Indesign, not imported.

Version is 19.3 and i'm on Windows 11.

InDesign has no built-in capability to copy text from multiple text frames at the same time.

There may be a script or a plug-in which has that capability, but since I've never needed to do that, I've never looked for it.

You might add a Scripting tag to your posting to catch the eye of those who script or work with scripts entensively.

Alright, thanks for the answer, at least now I know that I can't. I would add the tag but I can't edit my post at my level it seems.
