How do i find the largest attachments in my Confluence account/Space?

Hi,

How do I find the largest attachments in my Confluence account/Space?

I'm receiving an out-of-storage error and I want to consider deleting my largest attachments and pages.

Online help says I need to do a database query. How do I do a database query?

Hi @Dylan Cornelius 

It's probably quicker to just open each Space and check, given it's a Free instance with minimal storage:

1. Open each Space
2. Select Space Settings from the left-hand menu
3. Under the Manage Pages section, select Attachments
4. Order each Attachments list by Size (using the title row to toggle the order)

Thank you so much!

Much appreciated. :-)

Hi @Dylan Cornelius,

the database query you find online is for Confluence Server/Data Center. In your Cloud instance you can follow the directions from @Ste Wright to find large attachments per space.

Once cleaned up, I recommend configuring the attachment size in your settings. This will prevent large uploads to your free instance. The steps are described here: https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/configure-attachment-size/

Best,
