How do you delete a Confluence file displayed in a tabular view? Thanks a lot!

Hi @Ramona C_ 

Can I clarify the question here?

Are you looking to delete an attachment which is in a Confluence table? Or something else?

And is this Confluence Server/DC, or Confluence Cloud?

A screenshot might be beneficial here :)

Thanks, @Stephen Wright _Elabor8_ - attaching now a screenshot. We use Confluence global, it's in a private cloud.

Hi @Ramona C_ 

You should be able to expand the Attachment using the arrow on the left-hand side - and choose to delete it from there.

This is assuming you have permission to delete attachments though, via Space Permissions. Without this, you cannot delete attachments.

Thanks, @Stephen Wright _Elabor8_ - Ok, then probably this is the reason why the delete option is not presented using the arrow on the left side - privilege/ permission not granted.

Hi @Ramona C_ 

If you're the Space Admin - you can check whether you have the permission (and grant it to yourself) via the Confluence Space Settings > Space Permissions.

If you're not the Space Admin, I'd contact one and see if they can grant you the permission :)

Yes, I figured that out :-) I am not a space  admin so need to ask permission. Thanks again! :-)
