# Delete expired files — OpenAI Storage

Botize method — `openai_storage.delete_expired_files` (action).

Deletes the oldest file from an OpenAI Vector Store if it is older than the specified number of days. This method deletes one file per run.

This is an action: it runs as a step of a task. Several can be chained.

## Fields you set

The field's internal name, its type and the values it accepts. These fields accept `{{...}}` tags from earlier steps.

- `mb_switch` *(boolean)* — Rules
- `vector_store_id` *(string)* — Vector Store Id
- `max_days` *(string)* — Max age (days)

It also accepts repeatable field groups, with these prefixes: `mb_filters_*`. These are composite components (buttons, filters, keyboards); the trailing number is set by the user as they are added.
