Select Topic AreaQuestion GitHub Feature AreaNotifications BodyHi GitHub, currently I have over 1,000+ notifications, and I want to know a way that I can bulk delete these notifications, instead of selecting 25 at a time. Is there any way I can do this efficiently?

GitHub does not currently offer a one-click "Delete All" for thousands of notifications in the web interface. However, you can use these methods to clear them efficiently: Method 1: Keyboard Shortcuts (Fastest in Browser)
Method 2: GitHub CLI (Most Efficient for Bulk)If you have the GitHub CLI installed, you can mark all notifications as read instantly with this command: gh api --method PUT /notifications -f last_read_at=$(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)To archive every notification (Mark as Done), you can run this loop: gh api notifications --paginate | jq -r '.[].id' | xargs -I {} gh api --method PATCH /notifications/threads/{} |
