Hi, is there a way to delete multiple rows from a glide table via a button press? I have users enter daily data and every time they enter data it creates a new row with that data. I would like to give an option for them to clear out all their data via a button press if they wanted to start over. Thanks

You can create a query/relation to catch all the rows that fit your condition, and add a button to delete all rows via that query/relation.

Could you provide an example? I made a relation but it is still only deleting one row at a time. Thanks

You need to change your delete action source to use the relation instead of ‘This Item’. Also make sure it’s a multiple relation.
