Bulk Delete Assets

Select and delete multiple assets at once from the assets listing. Bulk deletion is useful when you clear out files after a campaign ends or during a content audit.

When you delete an asset, Contentstack moves it to trash. You can restore the asset from trash within 14 days.

NoteTo delete assets, you need permission to delete assets in the stack. Without delete permission, the Delete action does not appear on the selection toolbar.

To delete multiple assets, sign in to your Contentstack account and perform the steps below:

  1. Navigate to the Assets listing page within your space.
  2. Select the assets you want to delete using the checkbox next to each asset.

    NoteYou can select and delete up to 100 assets at a time. To delete more than 100 assets, repeat the process in batches.

  3. The selection toolbar appears above the listing and shows the number of selected assets.
  4. On the selection toolbar, click Delete.
  5. The Delete Assets confirmation appears. Click Delete to confirm.

Contentstack moves the selected assets to trash and refreshes the assets listing.

To restore a deleted asset, open Trash within Space Settings and select the assets you want to restore.

WarningContentstack permanently removes assets from trash after 14 days. The asset cannot be restored after 14 days from the date of deletion.
