+Trash bin
+---------
+
+Nextcloud supports a calendar, events and tasks trash bin.
+
+The default delay before objects are purged from the trash bin is 30 days. A background job runs every 6 hours to clean up expired objects.
+
+To set up a different retention period, change the ``calendarRetentionObligation`` option::
+
+ php occ config:app:set dav calendarRetentionObligation --value=2592000
+
+Where the value is the number of seconds for the period. Setting the value to ``0`` disables the trash bin.

+Trash bin
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+If you delete events, tasks or a calendar in Calendar, your data is not gone yet. Instead, those items will be collected in a *trash bin*. This offers you to undo a deletion. After a period which defaults to 30 days (your administration may have changed this setting), those items will be deleted permanently. You can also permanently delete items earlier if you wish.
+
+.. figure:: images/calendar_trash_bin.png
+
+The ``Empty trash bin`` buttons will wipe all trash bin contents in one step.
+
+.. tip:: The trash bin is only accessible from the Calendar app. Any connected application or app won't be able to display its contents. However, events, tasks and calendars deleted in connected applications or app will also end up in the trash bin.
