Hi @ssmusic3 - I noticed and had the same question this week while playing with the image uploader and multi file uploader plugins.
Both instantly upload the file to the database without any workflow needed to store them as a ‘thing’.
The workflow action you are looking for to get rid of these source files is:
Data (Things) > Delete an Uploaded file > Enter in File’s URL
And then all you have to do is pass the value of the newly uploaded file and it will be erased from the Database.
EG: If you had a simple picture uploader, you could put a button below it and use this workflow to erase the file from the database.
