How do I select ALL and delete an announcement in a course?

Canvas007

During course import, the biggest gripe from users is deleting previous announcements by selecting individually. Community members have replied the solution of selecting multiple boxes and delete all. 

Is there a way to select all (with less than 3 clicks) and delete or clear announcements?

Hello @Canvas007 

Thank you for contacting the Instructure Community. As of now, there is no "select all" option to bulk delete the announcements. There have been others looking  for the same thing and there is a good suggestion to delete them using Javascript here: https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Canvas-Question-Forum/Mass-Delete-Old-Announcements/m-p/229660

Besides that, you would need to run API to select  and delete all announcements:

Besides those two options, the announcements would need to be clicked individually and then deleted en masse.
