Deleting content after accidentally deleting the schema first

Last updated: Feb 9, 2021
Hi guys! So, I created a Schema, added content to it, and published. Then I deleted the schema in my code without deleting the content first. How can I delete this data now? I am still getting the data when fetching it

If you know the document ID(s), you could run
sanity documents delete <id>
. If there's a bunch of docs, you could consider putting back a schema with the same name to see things in the studio again, or use a script instead: https://github.com/sanity-io/sanity-recipes/blob/master/snippets/deleteDocsByFilter.js
