+# Requirements:
+# You'll need the domain of your server (variable "serverDomain").
+#
+# For authentication, you will need the access token of your (admin) account.
+# You can obtain it in your Element client: "All settings" > "Help & About" > scroll down > click on "<click to reveal>" to get your access token.
+# Copy this token and paste it further down (variable "token").
+#
+# You can also specify another time span for deleting media.
+# Default is media, which was not accessed over the last 60 days (variable "timestamp60DaysAgo")
+#
+# You can automate this script via cron, e.g. cleanup every night:
+# 0 1 * * * /path/to/scripts/Matrix-Synapse-Helpers/CleanupMedia.sh > /dev/null 2>&1
