Permanently remove media from your My Media library

Resolution

Note:

• You must be the Media Owner to delete media.

Warning:

• The delete action permanently removes media and all related analytics, metadata, and files from the server
• There is no undo/restore function for deleted content
• Deleting published media can result in broken embeds. See the Publish Media article for more information on managing viewer access.

1. Navigate to My Media:
   • Canvas: Account > My Media.  
   • MiVideo MediaSpace: user drop-down menu > My Media.
2. Click the trash icon next to the media item
   • Note: If the delete icon is dimmed out, the site is configured to prevent deleting all or published media. Contact your site administrator if you cannot access the delete icon.
