Hi notcourage, The following lines attempt to iterate through all of the entities in a kind and deletes them one at a time.
all = Thing.all() for x in all: ... Since you check the time to do a redirect, it looks like this should avoid the 30 second time limit. Do you know what kind of timeout error you are seeing (datastore vs request deadline)? One thing that might help is fetching a small number of entities per request and deleting just a few at a time. It might look something like: db.delete(Thing.all().fetch(10)) Note, you don't need to iterate over the results of the all query as delete will take a list of entities.
