Is there a way to change the page properties of several pages at a time?

Its best practice to hide it when the page is created. However, if its created in bulk as @scott mentioned, can write a quick service to do the job.

Do you have any example to create a tool using a API in aem? Thanks!

I don't know what version of AEM you're using, but this is a sightly class that on activation will do what you're requesting.

(This has not been tested to be accurate, however, i'm pretty sure it'll work assuming it's ran on the author instance as an administrator or author.  This was literally thrown together 2 minutes ago, so please only use it as an example)
