+# List all media in a room
+
+This API gets a list of known media in a room.
+
+The API is:
+```
+GET /_matrix/client/r0/admin/room/<room_id>/media
+```
+including an `access_token` of a server admin.
+
+It returns a JSON body like the following:
+```
+{
+    "local": [
+        "mxc://localhost/xwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcba",
+        "mxc://localhost/abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwx"
+    ],
+    "remote": [

+        "mxc://matrix.org/abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwx"
+    ]

 The purge history API allows server admins to purge historic events from their
 database, reclaiming disk space.
 
-**NB!** This will not delete local events (locally sent messages content etc) from the database, but will remove lots of the metadata about them and does dramatically reduce the on disk space usage
-
 Depending on the amount of history being purged a call to the API may take
 several minutes or longer. During this period users will not be able to
 paginate further back in the room from the point being purged from.
 
-The API is simply:
+The API is:
 
-``POST /_matrix/client/r0/admin/purge_history/<room_id>/<event_id>``
+``POST /_matrix/client/r0/admin/purge_history/<room_id>[/<event_id>]``
 
 including an ``access_token`` of a server admin.
+
+By default, events sent by local users are not deleted, as they may represent
+the only copies of this content in existence. (Events sent by remote users are
+deleted.)
+
+Room state data (such as joins, leaves, topic) is always preserved.
+
+To delete local message events as well, set ``delete_local_events`` in the body:
+
+.. code:: json
+
+   {
+       "delete_local_events": true
+   }
+
+The caller must specify the point in the room to purge up to. This can be
+specified by including an event_id in the URI, or by setting a
+``purge_up_to_event_id`` or ``purge_up_to_ts`` in the request body. If an event
+id is given, that event (and others at the same graph depth) will be retained.
+If ``purge_up_to_ts`` is given, it should be a timestamp since the unix epoch,
+in milliseconds.
+
+The API starts the purge running, and returns immediately with a JSON body with
+a purge id:
+
+.. code:: json
+
+    {
+        "purge_id": "<opaque id>"
+    }
+
+Purge status query
+------------------
+
+It is possible to poll for updates on recent purges with a second API;
+
+``GET /_matrix/client/r0/admin/purge_history_status/<purge_id>``
+
+(again, with a suitable ``access_token``). This API returns a JSON body like
+the following:
+
+.. code:: json
+
+    {
+        "status": "active"
+    }
+
+The status will be one of ``active``, ``complete``, or ``failed``.
