At my company, we have to delete a multitude of tasks at a company wide level. I’m looking into using Asana API to delete these tasks in mass. My question is, when I start deleting these tasks, will the assignees and/or collaborators be bombarded with emails that tasks have been deleted across hundreds of projects? If that is the case, is there any way to get around this?

@Ajay_Chanderjit - welcome to the forum! I don’t believe you receive notifications for deleted tasks, per their [documentation for email notifications](https://help.asana.com/s/article/email-notifications?language=en_US#gl-activity) (and my own anecdotal observations).
