Deleting Custom Fields
On Business accounts, the account owner and all account admins can delete both account- and space-level custom fields. On Enterprise accounts only account owners can delete any custom field by default, but they can give account admins the permission to do that. Additionally, on all accounts, space admins can delete space-level custom fields that belong to their space.
You can completely delete any custom field along with its values from the account, including any account-level field that isn't shared with you in the Account Management section.
Note
Account-wide custom field management doesn't display custom fields that belong to personal and locked spaces.
If you're a space admin, you can also delete space-level custom fields from the custom field management view in your space.
Tip
On this page, you'll learn how to delete custom fields from the account. If you're looking for a way to remove a field from a folder, project, or space without permanently deleting it, check out the Removing and Hiding Custom Fields page.
Caution
Before deleting a custom field, make sure that it's no longer used in the account. You can check usage data in the Custom field section of Account Management. Deleting a custom field will affect all users who have access to the field and may interrupt the work of filters, request forms, and automation rules that use that field.
