TL;DR

Only space admins can delete spaces (account admin rights needed for locked spaces). Deleting a space permanently removes its tools, custom fields, workflows, and automations for all users. Deleted spaces and items go to the Recycle bin for restoring - except locked spaces, whose contents are erased permanently. To delete: open the space, click the three-dot menu, select Delete space, and confirm.

Users on the Team plan are unable to delete spaces.

Overview

Only space admins can delete spaces they manage. To delete a locked space, the space admin must also be an account admin.

You can delete a space that you no longer need. Once deleted, the space disappears for all users in the account.

When a space is deleted, space-level tools, custom item types, custom fields, workflows, automation rules, request forms, blueprints, and AI agents are deleted permanently.

The deleted spaces, along with all its items, are put in the Recycle bin. The space itself shows up as a folder within the bin. If needed, you can later restore this folder into the Shared with me section and create a space from it.

Note

If you delete a Locked space, all its contents are permanently deleted.

If some item from the deleted space was cross-tagged with a different space, it stays visible there and isn't transferred to the Recycle bin.
