A few weeks ago we announced the first in a series of upgrades to Netlify’s [form handling](https://docs.netlify.com/forms/setup/) (beta), which allows you to add forms to your site without writing server-side code. Now, not only can you [export form submissions to CSV](hhttps://docs.netlify.com/forms/setup/), you can also [delete submissions](https://docs.netlify.com/forms/setup/).

![delete submissions flow](/v3/img/blog/delete_submissions_v3.gif)

From the form detail page in the Netlify app, you can now select one or more form submissions, then click a button to delete them. (Be warned—the deletions are permanent!) You can also delete submissions programmatically using the [Netlify API](https://docs.netlify.com/api/get-started/#forms).

This means that users like [@crgeary](https://twitter.com/crgeary) and [@\_brettsmith](https://twitter.com/_brettsmith) who need to consider how long they store client data, or just like a tidy dashboard, have more control.

If you’re ready to give serverless form handling a try, this [tutorial on form handling](https://www.netlify.com/blog/2017/07/20/how-to-integrate-netlifys-form-handling-in-a-react-app/) in a React App or this [tutorial that integrates Zapier](https://www.netlify.com/blog/2017/09/19/form-handling-with-the-jamstack-and-netlify/) are a great place to start.

In the meantime, we’ll keep working to make form handling better for you. Give us a shout on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/Netlify), [Gitter](https://gitter.im/netlify/home), or through support with your feedback.
