You can delete multiple documents in a collection by calling the delete()
method on an object collection or a query builder.
To delete multiple documents, pass a query filter to the where()
method. Then, delete the matching documents by calling the delete()
method.
To learn more about deleting documents with the Laravel Integration, see the Delete Documents section of the Write Operations guide.
