Steps to delete your individual user account

  1. Click on your workspace logo --> User settings

  2. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the button to Delete. (Note: we strongly recommend exporting important data first before starting the deletion process)

    1. Providing a reason for deletion (ex. leaving the organization, switching to another tool)

    2. Typing the text "delete"

      ​

  4. Once this information has been entered, the Delete button will no longer be faded out and will be clickable. Press the Delete user account button.

When the process is complete, you will see a notification across the bottom of your screen confirming that your use account will be permanently deleted in 72 hours.

Once the account has been fully deleted you will also receive an email to confirm that the account deletion has been complete.

If you change your mind within this 72 hour period and don't want to delete your user account, you can cancel the request by selecting the cancel deletion option. This will cancel your request and allow you to resume using your account.
