As a Groups administrator, you can delete a target audience. Learn more about target audiences.

Before you begin

  • Important: Make sure you remove the target audience from any services it's applied to; otherwise, you can't delete the audience. For details, go to Set target audiences for a Google service.
  • If you delete a target audience, members will no longer have access to any files shared with the audience (unless those files are also shared with members directly or through another group).
  • Members' accounts and member groups aren't deleted.
  • You can't delete the pre-defined target audience, which includes all users in your organization. This audience has the name of your organization.

Note: To stop using a target audience temporarily, you can remove it from Google services instead. For details, go to Set target audiences for a Google service.
