There is not per se a way to clean the DAM. You can delete folders and assets from the DAM root level at /content/dam

Although if you set your new package filer to "/content/dam" it will overwrite the DAM and upon the deployment, you will see only the new assets

 

You need to fix a missing blobId error, prior to uploading a new package with assets. Please use KB at https://helpx.adobe.com/ca/experience-manager/kb/oak-blobstore-inconsistency-blobId.html as guidance.

@berliant I was trying the same above steps, but while installing error throws that InputStream for blobId "xxxxxxx' not found. I tried all file recovery process hence thinking of deleting entire DAM and reinstall it.
