Trash

The Trash section serves as a safety net for deleted files, allowing you to recover accidentally deleted items or permanently remove files you no longer need. The Trash contains files from all projects you have access to.

Accessing Trash

Navigate to Trash in the navigation sidebar on the left. This is a global trash that includes all files from every project you have access to, organized in one central location.

Restoring Files

Files in the trash can be restored to project root. This is useful for recovering accidentally deleted files.

Restoring Selected Files

To restore specific files:

  1. Select the files you want to restore by clicking their checkboxes
  2. Click the Restore button that appears at the top
  3. The files will be moved back to their original project locations

Upon successful restoration, the page will refresh and show a success message in the top right corner. Error messages will also appear in the top right corner if any issues occur.

Permanently Deleting Files

Permanent deletion cannot be undone. Make sure you no longer need these files before proceeding.

Deleting Selected Files

To permanently delete specific files:

  1. Select the files you want to permanently delete using their checkboxes
  2. Click the Delete File(s) button at the top

  5. Click the confirmation button to proceed

The page will refresh upon completion, showing either a success message or error details in the top right corner.

Clearing All Trash

This action will permanently delete ALL files in your trash from every project. This cannot be undone.

To clear your entire trash:

  1. Ensure no files are selected (uncheck all checkboxes)
  2. Click the Clear Trash button at the top
  3. A confirmation dialog will appear
  4. Type Confirm Delete in the input field
  5. Click the confirmation button to permanently delete all trash contents

The page will refresh after the operation completes, with feedback messages appearing in the top right corner.
