### Delete media uploaded by a user
This API deletes the *local* media from the disk of your own server
that a specific `user_id` has created. This includes any local thumbnails.
This API will not affect media that has been uploaded to external
media repositories (e.g https://github.com/turt2live/matrix-media-repo/).
By default, the API deletes media ordered by descending creation date and ascending media ID.
The newest media is deleted first. You can change the order with parameters
`order_by` and `dir`. If no `limit` is set the API deletes `100` files per request.
The API is:
```
DELETE /_synapse/admin/v1/users/<user_id>/media
```
To use it, you will need to authenticate by providing an `access_token` for a
server admin: [Admin API](../usage/administration/admin_api)
A response body like the following is returned:
```json
{
"deleted_media": [
"abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwx"
],
"total": 1
}
```
The following fields are returned in the JSON response body:
* `deleted_media`: an array of strings - List of deleted `media_id`
* `total`: integer - Total number of deleted `media_id`
**Note**: There is no `next_token`. This is not useful for deleting media, because
after deleting media the remaining media have a new order.
**Parameters**
This API has the same parameters as
[List media uploaded by a user](#list-media-uploaded-by-a-user).
With the parameters you can for example limit the number of files to delete at once or
delete largest/smallest or newest/oldest files first.
