How to delete a document that was created as a guest?

Salamimonster

I use CryptPad on this site https://cryptpad.piratenpartei.de/.
There you can create documents as a guest.
That´s nice and easy.
But there seems to be no way to delete a document that was created as a guest.
I created an account, to delete it, but even after doing so, I can not take over and delete the document.

There is an option to "store" a document in my account, but it seems, that it only creates a copy of the original document.

How can I delete a document, that is created as a guest?

Hello!

Thanks for your interest in CryptPad!

Due to how guests are currently handled, it's not possible to certify who created the document.Hence, the impossibility to delete it yourself.

If it contains private information that needs to be deleted you can reach out to your instance administrators, giving them the Document identifier and asking for its deletion.

Otherwise, if no one access the file for a while, it will ultimately be archived and then deleted. But these retention settings can be customized for every instance and may differ from one to another.
