Resolution: Won't Fix
Issue Summary
Please evaluate to add a way to delete attachments from UI in faster way from how it has to be currently done.
Right now the user can delete only one file at a time. This is not optimal when you have to delete a big amount of attachments.
Common reasons to delete a big amount of attachments:
- Downgrade the plan to Standard given that the max allowed storage is 250GB (this limit is not enforced yet)
- When copying a page: all the attachments are copied as well
Steps to Reproduce
- Create or open a Confluence page
- Click the '...' button
- Attachments >> Files
- Attach several files
- Try to delete more files in one time
Expected Results
You can delete several files in one time
Actual Results
You can only delete one file at one time
Workaround
1 - Use REST API as described at this link. For this method you will need to create a script via a programming language (e.g. Python or PHP)
2- There is a marketplace app which could help:
Confluence Command Line Interface (CLI)
3 - Only for Premium/Enterprise: Automation for bulk delete unused attachments across your spaces or entire site
