Delete assets

You can delete assets from a collection if they are no longer needed. You can delete one or multiple assets when viewing a collection, or you can delete the asset you are currently viewing.

You can only delete the latest version of an asset. Asset versions marked as Deleted cannot be viewed or downloaded.

Tip

When an asset is locked in Helix Core Server, the asset is also locked in Helix DAM. Locked assets display a lock icon by the asset name. See Locked assets.
