Question About Permanently Deleting Files from Trash Options

Hey Everyone - I just have a very simple question for now. Did Clay removed an option to Permanently delete the files from trash immediately, because I can not see any option to delete it. It just gives me an option to Recover the file. Kindly let me know how can I do it. Thanks.

    No, we haven't removed the option to permanently delete files from the trash. You can still do this. Here's how: 1. Click on the Trash icon in your workspace. 2. Select the table you want to permanently delete. 3. Click "Yes, delete this table" to permanently remove it. The Trash icon is located in the top navigation bar of your workspace. Once in the Archive (Trash), you have options to both recover tables and delete them permanently. If you're having trouble finding these options, let me know and I can provide more guidance.

    I can only see an option to recover the file and not to delete it permanently. As I showed in the screenshot.

    I apologize for the confusion. The option to permanently delete files should be available in the Trash. Here's how you can access it: 1. Click the Trash icon in your workspace. 2. Select the table you want to permanently delete. 3. Look for the "Yes, delete this table" option. If you're still unable to see this option, it might be a display issue. Try these steps: 1. Clear your browser cache. 2. Refresh the page. If the problem persists after trying these steps, it could be a temporary glitch.
