# Delete documents in bulk

You can delete many documents at once. Deleted documents stay recoverable for **90 days**, then haddock removes them permanently.

Use the **Deleted** status filter or queue in **Documents** to see removed documents. Recover them from the row menu while they are still within the retention period.

## Deleting documents sent to Holded

If Holded is connected and a document was already sent there, haddock may show **Also delete linked documents from Holded** when you delete.

- The option appears only when a linked Holded document still exists.
- It is unchecked by default. If you leave it unchecked, only the haddock copy is deleted.
- If you check it, haddock deletes the Holded document first, then the haddock document.
- Holded deletion cannot be undone from haddock. If Holded deletion fails, the haddock document is not deleted.
