Key highlights of the appFind unused attachments in Confluence — nothing links to them any more — then trash them safely with a dry run

Finds attachments nothing links to any more
Scans page and blog post bodies, cross-page references and cover-image assignments: not just "is this file attached", but "does anything still point to it". Read-only scan, safe to run any time.
Trash, not permanent delete
Selected attachments move to Confluence's trash, where your site admins can restore them if the scan was wrong. Nothing is purged. Dry run shows exactly what will move before you commit.
Built for real sites, not just small ones
Large spaces are scanned in resumable background chunks: close the tab and come back. Stuck jobs are automatically recovered. Runs on Atlassian: your content never leaves your site.

More details
Confluence has no built-in way to find attachments that nothing references any more (CONFCLOUD-16577). Free and Standard sites hit the storage limit faster than admins expect. Attachment Sweep adds a global page under Apps that does the scan for you.
What it does: scans pages and blog posts for attachment references (body text, cover images, links from other pages); lists unreferenced attachments by space, size and date; dry run shows exactly what will move; selected attachments go to the Confluence trash (never purged) and can be restored by a site admin; jobs run in resumable background chunks.
How it is built: Forge app, Runs on Atlassian, zero external egress; acts with the permissions of the user who starts the job; stores only job state in Forge storage; unlicensed or after trial, scan and dry run keep working while trash jobs are disabled.
v1 covers page and blog post bodies plus cover images.
