How can I clear the image resources previously auto-backed up by Cloudinary?

I've bulk deleted all of the images on my account and now disabled Cloudinary's auto backup feature. However, the images previously backed up still remain. How do I clear the entire backup?

Also, how do Cloudinary backups treat deletion of images generally? If auto-backup is enabled and an image is deleted, is that image ever cleared from the backup? Can backup images be set up to expire after a time period like 3 months if they haven't been recovered?

Thanks!

Bryant

Hi Bryant.

Backup entries are not removed when you delete resources (in order to protect your content from a deletion that went wrong).

Clearing the backup is currently done by Cloudinary only (no policy is supported at the moment). Please feel free to open a support ticket with the relevant information and we'll be glad to help further.
