Clear employee pictures (sandbox)¶
Delete the Tenant Media photos of all employees in the current company, including their thumbnails.
Permanent
The photos are deleted from the database and cannot be recovered.
When to use this
You test Media Bridge in a sandbox and want to remove all employee photos from the database.
1. Prerequisites¶
- The environment is a sandbox. The action is not shown in production.
- You have the Clear Employee Media permission set (
FRW Clear Empl Media). The Clear Item Media set does not include it.
Unlike Clear Item Pictures, this also works in a company that uses a media source company, because employee photos always belong to their own company.
2. What is deleted, and what is not¶
| Deleted | Kept |
|---|---|
| Tenant Media photos of employees in this company, with their thumbnails | Photos in External File Storage |
| Media of other apps and of the base application | |
| Media that is also used in any media set |
3. Steps¶
- Search for Media Bridge Setup and open the page.
- Choose Clear Employee Pictures.
- Read the first confirmation, with the number of employees, media records and thumbnails. Choose Yes.
- On Confirm Clear Employee Pictures, type the company name exactly and choose OK.
A message confirms how many photos were deleted.
4. Verify¶
- Employees no longer show a Tenant Media photo.
5. Common signals you may need this procedure¶
The company name does not match
Nothing was deleted. Try again and type the name exactly.
There are no employee pictures in Tenant Media to delete.
Nothing to delete in this company.
Clearing employee pictures requires a user to confirm it and cannot run in the background.
It can only run interactively.
