With Content Services 5.2, you can list the deleted nodes for a given user and then delete them one-by-one.

Alfresco Content Services REST API Explorer

In the future, we will also add the option to empty the trashcan as a single operation &/or via a batch operation.

[REPO-126] Purge All Deleted Nodes - Alfresco JIRA

You also have the option to use the deprecated Web Scripts (aka "V0 REST API"):

DELETE permanently (purge) a node or nodes from the archive | Alfresco Documentation

In this case (I haven't had a chance to test & verify) it should purge the archived nodes deleted by the current user, although if the current user is an Administrator then all the deleted nodes are purged.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Jan
