Identification and deletion of duplicate attachments in Confluence

[Vinay Sharma]

Is there a way to:

a) Identify duplicate attachments in a Space and in an entire Confluence Instance

b) Delete duplicate attachments.

[Barbara Szczesniak]

@Vinay Sharma You should also take into account that different pages may refer to different duplicates and that attachments with the same name are not necessarily the same actual file or version of the file. You will want to decide which one you're going to keep and update all references to point to that version before deleting the unwanted attachments.

Hi @Vinay Sharma , would the duplicates be constrained to the same space? If so you can view all attachments for a given space and delete the unwanted. Please see this article for more on managing attachments- manage-uploaded-files .
