The solutions worked fine until very recently. Trakt throwing up "Doh!" errors when trying to run this.

I confirm that the server responds with a Too many requests error. Due to this, I wrote the following script to clear my collection page by page. 32 pages in my case. Have fun.

function clearCollect(time = 2000) {
    var i = 0, items = $(".grid-item");
    console.log(`Start remove ${items.length} items`);
    var interval = setInterval(() => {
        if (i < items.length) {
            let item = $(items[i++]);
            actionWatch(item, "collect", true);
            console.log(`Remove item ${i - 1}`);
        } else clearInterval(interval);
    }, time);
}
clearCollect();

@Clndl Your version works perfectly with the new rate limiting. You can decrease the interval to 1500ms without hitting the limit though.

I hit limits with 1500ms. Here's a version that works and integrates pagination again: gist link

const RATE_LIMIT_DELAY = 2000;  // Delay between each item collection (2 seconds)
const PAGE_CHANGE_DELAY = 5000;  // Delay before changing page (5 seconds)

async function clearTraktCollection() {
    // Collect current page
    const items = $(".grid-item");
    console.log(`Processing ${items.length} items on current page`);
    
    // Process items one by one with delay
    for (let i = 0; i < items.length; i++) {
        const item = $(items[i]);
        actionWatch(item, "collect", true);
        console.log(`Removed item ${i + 1}/${items.length}`);
        await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, RATE_LIMIT_DELAY));
    }
    
    // Check if there's a next page
    const nextPageButton = $(".pagination-top .page.active").next().find('a');
    if (nextPageButton.length) {
        console.log("Moving to next page...");
        await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, PAGE_CHANGE_DELAY));
        nextPageButton[0].click();
        // Wait for page load and continue collection
        setTimeout(clearTraktCollection, PAGE_CHANGE_DELAY);
    } else {
        console.log("Collection cleared - no more pages");
    }
}

// Start the clearing process
clearTraktCollection();

I get a Doh! error even with this for some reason, but the one from Clndl works

Anyways, thanks everyone for the help with this. No clue why this isn't easier
