Insert n copies of a part into an assembly in one step

Possibly this has been answered but I can't find it.
I have a highly visible bolt pattern so I need all the holes filled with bolts. I've imported the bolt part model and now I need to insert many copies of it. I can do many individual inserts (tedious) or I can copy and paste the bolt within the assembly. However, I note the number 1 attached to the mouse pointer so I suspect there may be a way to tell OnShape how many instances I need to insert in one step. Is this possible?

I believe the "replicate" feature in assemblies is what you are looking for:
