* [Delete an image](#image-deletion)

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Note:**

If the trash icon is not visible on the thumbnail, this means that the SharinPix delete image ability has not been enabled for the album. To enable the delete image ability:

* Either enable it in a SharinPix Permission record and add the permission to the required album
* Or enable it at an organisation level using the SharinPix Global Settings
  {% endhint %}

## Delete Confirmation Setup

You can also add a delete confirmation alert that will popup whenever you delete one or more images.

The delete confimation alert can be added to a SharinPix album using the following methods:

* By enabling the **Confirm delete** feature in a SharinPix Permission record, then assign the permission to the desired album. More information about the SharinPix Permission object [here](/documentation/access-and-security/sharinpix-permission-object-how-to-create-and-assign-custom-permission.md).

* By enabling the **Delete confimation popup** ability at an organisation level using the SharinPix Global Settings. This configuration will enable the delete confirmation alert for all SharinPix albums on your by default. More information about the SharinPix Global Settings [here](/documentation/getting-started-with-sharinpix/advanced-setup/advanced-configuration-customizing-your-sharinpix-components-with-sharinpix-permissions.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.sharinpix.com/documentation/features/user-interface/thumbnail-view-delete.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
