Allow users to delete all their entries from the app in one click

[gregdarebe]

Hi there,

I would like to allow my users to delete all their entries in one click. Most of their entries will be outside the Users data base. Each entry has a 1-1 relationship to the user - one entry is linked to one user.

Any idea how I could enable my users to delete all such entries in one click?
Thanks!

Hi @gregdarebe,

I don’t think there is a straightforward way to do this, unfortunately.
Though you might find useful those workarounds:

Bulk operations and Timer Tricks, part 1: simple mass delete example

With the Minimum Studio’s countdown timer component, some amazing possibilities has appeared. In particular, when using this timer together with the lists, it is possible to perform “mass operations” with the list items (i.e. with records in the collections). Here is the simple “mass delete” tutorial: [Adalo hints: simple mass delete (countdown timer tricks, part 1)]

Bulk operations and Timer Tricks, part 2: cascade deleting of items

This is more advanced version of “Mass Delete” tutorial, made with countdown timer component. It solves quite common problem: how to delete not only the “Main” record from the collection, but also “child” records from another collection automatically. Think about abandoned Shopping Cart and Cart Items. Now it’s possible to do this: [Adalo hints: mass delete with sub-collections (countdown timer tricks, part 2)]
