I have 1748 versions in Google Apps Script including the current version. I am trying to get down to below 200 to get below the 200 maximum coming in June. When I go to Manage Deployments, I see a bunch of versions in Active (versions I don't use anymore) and a bunch of versions in Archived (2 of which I use). I also use the current version.
What am I doing wrong and how to delete more? I'm also considering starting the project over by copying/pasting the current version, but it would be nice to also keep the other 2 versions that I use easily available.
I tried deleting some versions but only 4 of the 1700+ were able to be deleted. I was expecting to be able to delete more versions
As you want to delete active versions, you should evaluate the implications of archiving hundreds of versions compared to copying the versions you want to keep for a new project or starting a new project from scratch.
For details on how to manually archive a versioned deployment, see Archive a versioned deployment.
To efficiently do this, you might have to learn new things like how to use the Google Apps Script API and CLASP.
