+<h3 id="delete-media-uploaded-by-a-user"><a class="header" href="#delete-media-uploaded-by-a-user">Delete media uploaded by a user</a></h3>
+<p>This API deletes the <em>local</em> media from the disk of your own server
+that a specific <code>user_id</code> has created. This includes any local thumbnails.</p>
+<p>This API will not affect media that has been uploaded to external
+media repositories (e.g https://github.com/turt2live/matrix-media-repo/).</p>
+<p>By default, the API deletes media ordered by descending creation date and ascending media ID.
+The newest media is deleted first. You can change the order with parameters
+<code>order_by</code> and <code>dir</code>. If no <code>limit</code> is set the API deletes <code>100</code> files per request.</p>
+<p>The API is:</p>
+<pre><code>DELETE /_synapse/admin/v1/users/<user_id>/media
+</code></pre>
+<p>To use it, you will need to authenticate by providing an <code>access_token</code> for a
+server admin: <a href="../usage/administration/admin_api">Admin API</a></p>
+<p>A response body like the following is returned:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-json">{
+ "deleted_media": [
+ "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwx"
+ ],
+ "total": 1
+}
+</code></pre>
+<p>The following fields are returned in the JSON response body:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>deleted_media</code>: an array of strings - List of deleted <code>media_id</code></li>
+<li><code>total</code>: integer - Total number of deleted <code>media_id</code></li>
</ul>
+<p><strong>Note</strong>: There is no <code>next_token</code>. This is not useful for deleting media, because
+after deleting media the remaining media have a new order.</p>
+<p><strong>Parameters</strong></p>
+<p>This API has the same parameters as
+<a href="#list-media-uploaded-by-a-user">List media uploaded by a user</a>.
+With the parameters you can for example limit the number of files to delete at once or
+delete largest/smallest or newest/oldest files first.</p>
<h2 id="login-as-a-user"><a class="header" href="#login-as-a-user">Login as a user</a></h2>
<p>Get an access token that can be used to authenticate as that user. Useful for
when admins wish to do actions on behalf of a user.</p>
