Deleting files in workspaces

Items in the Files & Discussions tab can be deleted and sent to the Trash from the folder view or when viewing a single file.  Once a file has been sent to the Trash, it can either be deleted permanently or restored.

Only workspace members with Delete permissions will be able to send items to the Trash and permanently delete them. Any workspace administrator can adjust member permissions from the Permissions tab.


To delete a file from folder list view, select a file and select Trash.
