Size of the deleted files

Size of the deleted files

These answers look like coding advice.  How do I see the size of all my Deleted Files so I can permanently delete the big ones?  The Deleted Files page does not show Size or Properties.

I've moved your post out of the API are as your question doesn't seem related to creating an app using the API.

 

There is no option to see the size of deleted files. It also shouldn't matter because deleted files do not take up space in your account. If you're planning to permanently delete the larger files to gain some space, you've already gained that space back when you deleted them.
