# Delete Products

> Permanently delete many products at once, with a confirmation step that prevents accidental mass removal.

Remove many products from your catalog in one action. Use this to clear out discontinued lines, test data, or duplicates after a messy import.

<Warning>
  Deletion is permanent. Deleted products cannot be recovered. If there's any chance you'll need the data later, [export your products](/en/essentials/exporting-products) first.
</Warning>

## Delete products in bulk

<Steps>
  <Step title="Select products">
    Check the products you want to delete, or use filters and select all matching results.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open Bulk Edit and choose Delete Products">
    Click **Bulk Edit**, then search for "Delete Products" or find it under **Danger zone**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review and confirm">
    Check the number of products that will be deleted, then confirm. You must confirm explicitly before the action runs.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What gets deleted

Deleting a product removes everything attached to it:

* The product record and all its field values
* Custom attribute values
* Category assignments
* Pricing and inventory data

## Tips

* Export your products before a bulk delete if there's any chance you'll need the data later.
* Use filters to narrow your selection. Double-check that only the intended products are selected before you confirm.
* For large deletions, follow progress in the [Process Tracker](/en/other-features/process-tracker).
