# Managing Asset Deletion

> For the full documentation index, see: https://docs.mulesoft.com/llms.txt

Control how assets are deleted in Exchange from **Settings**. Admins can choose how asset owners can
delete asset versions in Exchange. They can enable or disable the ability to permanently delete an
asset to reuse the GAV (group ID, asset ID, and version) for a new asset. It doesn’t matter when the
asset version was created. When enabled, asset owners see an option to allow the GAV to be reused
when deleting an asset version. When disabled, the GAV can’t be reused after deleting the asset
version.

To enable or disable the option to delete an asset and reuse the GAV:

1.  From the navigation bar, select **Settings** and select **Asset Deletion & Connected Apps
    Management**.

2.  In **Asset Deletion Configuration**, enable or disable the option.
