# Filtering, downloading and deleting credentials
### Filtering credentials
For easier management of the credentials issuers can filter the credential view table by Credential ID, Issue date (use YYYY-MM-DD format), Type (schema used) or subject reference.
### Downloading credentials
If you need to download an already issued credential you can do it by selecting credential you want to download and clicking Download.
{% hint style="warning" %}
For a credential to be downloadable you need to select [Persist Credential](https://help.dock.io/en/articles/8200914-issue-verifiable-credentials#h_e26a4957df) when issuing credentials. If the persisting was not selected upon creation the credential an encrypted copy is not stored on our servers and therefore can not be downloaded.
{% endhint %}
### Deleting credentials
If you don’t want to see a certain Verifiable Credentials in your account, select the ones you want to remove and click Delete. This does not delete the credentials themselves, it just removes them from the account view.
If the credential is not revocable, then the recipients will still have the credential in their wallet and be able to present it to verifiers because they have full ownership of it. Only credential holders will be able to delete the credential if they chose to.
If you wish to revoke the credential before deleting it see this [article.](/truvera-workspace/revoking-credentials.md)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.truvera.io/truvera-workspace/issue-verifiable-credentials/downloading-and-deleting-credentials.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
