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.
    Note: 'Space Admin' is displayed only if you are a space administrator for that space, or you are a super user (a member of the confluence-administrators group).
  3. Click Remove Space in the left panel under the heading 'Space Operations'.
  4. Click OK to confirm.
