Hi,
I was wondering if it’s possible to destroy multiple droplets at once or does it have to be done manually? having to close down 20-50 droplets manually is time consuming, so hopefully there’s a better, more efficient way of handling this?

It’s not currently possible from the DigitalOcean Control Panel, though you could use the API or even doctl, and write a script that would perform either the shutdown or destroy actions. You would need to write a script to handle interaction with the API or with doctl to automate this, but it can be done.
