The best way to update existing Paragraphs in Production with newField = TRUE

Question

how are you?

Do you know what's the best way to fill a new field inside of Paragraphs in a Production Environment?

E.g.:

1. I have a Paragraph called "MyParagraph" and this Paragraph has two fields "Title" and "Description";
2. This Paragraph is already present on our Production Environment and there are 500 nodes with this Paragraph filled;
3. I created right now a new field called "Show Description". This field is a checkbox and default is "Checked";

Now I need to update all of these 50 Paragraphs in production with this new field "Show Description" = TRUE

Do you know what's the best option to do that?

I used a simple hook_update to do this, and another script with a batch process. But I want to see if there is the best solution to do this update.

For a no custom code solution, Use Views Bulk Operations with Views Update Fields

Or with Views Bulk Edit, although it's crashing with Paragraphs, so maybe in the future for this particular case.

PS: Do first a dry run on dev/local before doing it on live.
