Thumbnail view – Trash bin

The **Trash bin **is a SharinPix ability that temporarily stores the images deleted from a SharinPix album.

If images are deleted accidentally and need to be recovered, retrieved or undeleted, the Trash bin can be used to restore those images.

Images deleted within the last 30 days can be restored from the Trash bin.

Trash bin can be added to a SharinPix album using the following methods:

  • By using a SharinPix Permission record

  • By enabling the Trash bin ability at an organisation level using the SharinPix Global Settings

  • By including the Trash bin ability in the list of parameters in an Apex class (developer-oriented)
