Delete a space

When you no longer want to use a space, you can delete it. When a space is deleted, you can’t recover it.

Important:

• You can only delete a space if you have the space owner role.
• When you delete a space, all messages and tasks in the space are deleted. Permissions on Drive files are removed, but the file isn’t deleted.
• If you're the last space owner and want to leave, you must make someone else the space owner or delete the space.
