Simple query #BulkDelete


 

I have looked in today¡¯s PDF version of Groups.io_Owners_Manual and cannot find the answer to my simple question.
I would like to delete all messages (and their attachments) for a multi-month period.
For instance, my small group (~60 members) has just over 800 messages from 2021. Here¡¯s that selection choice:


And the results from that ¡°Go" presents:



Now that I¡¯ve ¡°Filtered¡± all messages between 2020-12-31 and 2022-01-01 (in this case, 805 messages), I¡¯d like to click ¡°Clear¡± or ¡°Delete¡± or ¡°Discard"

Yet this doesn¡¯t seem to work. Can someone please point me to where in the Owners Manual I can find the instructions to accomplish this?

First, I wanted to remind you that the message archive does not count against your storage capacity in Groups.io.

It is difficult to bulk delete messages from the message archive.

The Help tells you a bit about deleting topics and individual messages.
/helpcenter/ownersmanual/1/managing-group-topics-and-messages/deleting-topics?single=true

I have moved messages into topics and put a timed delete hashtag on them. But I haven't tried it for years of messages.
