Hello,
Is there a way to create a button to allow the user to delete ALL records in an object?
In one of our projects, we are using Knack as a leaderboard for visitors that take a quiz. The user wants to clear the leaderboard whenever they add new quiz content.
Thanks for any help!
You can’t bulk delete records from an object in the live app as a standard feature. You’d be looking at a code based solution.
I’m not a coder so can’t help further 
May be worth reaching out to either Knack Pros or Sunny Singla on the expert network.Highly recommend both for this type of bespoke code solution.

Thanks for the response Carl. I figured I’d need to seek out something custom. I’ll try some other avenues, have a great day.

For anyone looking for a solution to this, I had some help from other experts.
This can be done with code, or this can be done relatively easily with a Make.com account. Create a new object in Knack with the sole purpose of creating an arbitrary record. In your Make account, create a
Knack webhook to listen to that object when a new record is created, then use a search function to find the records you want, then a delete function to remove those records. Next create a button in Knack, in your page, that uses a form to create a new record for that object. The new record is the trigger to activate the Make.com delete command.
It’s a simple scenario, and I’m sure it’s only useful for a small amount of records to be deleted, But hopefully this helps others on the right path.
Thanks to @Loic_Wiseflow for helping me with this.
