Deleting a space permanently removes the space and all of its contents.

Warning

Use caution while deleting a space, and always create an XML Space Backup before proceeding. Once deleted, there is no way to restore a space unless you have made an XML Space Backup.

You need to be a space administrator to delete a space.

To delete a space:

  1. Navigate to the space you wish to delete.

  2. Choose Browse > Space Admin.
    (info) Space Admin is displayed only if you are a space administrator for that space or you are a Confluence system administrator.

  3. Click Remove Space in the left panel under the heading 'Space Operations'.
  4. Click OK to confirm.
