Delete files from attachments
You might want to delete a file from an attachment if you no longer have any use for that file. When you delete a file from an attachment, the file itself is not deleted. Only the relationship between the file and the attachment is deleted.
Before you begin
To determine if an attachment has already been assigned to any catalog or marketing content business objects, view the attachment details. The properties view of the selected attachment displays the business objects that the attachment is assigned to in the Reference tab.
Procedure
- Open the Assets tool.
- In the explorer view, find the attachment that contains the file to delete.
- Right-click the attachment; then click Open. The properties view displays.
- In the Manage Attachment tab, locate the file that to delete in the Files or URLs table.
- Delete the file using one of these methods:
- Right-click the file; then click Delete.
- Select the file and click .
The file is deleted.
If you are working in an extended sites store and the file that to delete is contained in an attachment that belongs to an asset store, you cannot delete the file unless you are authorized to access the asset store. When you are in an extended site store, the icon in the Type column for the attachment displays a small white arrow to indicate that the attachment belongs to an extended sites store. Any changes that you make to the attachment are applied to all stores that use this attachment.
