Delete and restore boards

Deleting a board moves it to Trash first, so a slip is easy to undo.

BetaBeta. Trash works for boards on this device. For signed-in accounts it depends on a server update that may not be on every deployment.

Delete a board

  1. In the sidebar, open the board's options menu and choose Delete board.
  2. Confirm with Move to Trash. A toast offers Undo right away.

Restore or remove it

Deleting a folder moves its boards to Trash too. Boards in Trash are purged after 30 days.

  1. Open Trash in the sidebar.
  2. Choose Restore next to the board. It returns to its original folder.
  3. Or choose Delete forever, or Empty trash to clear everything. Both ask first.

What you should see

Restored boards reappear on Home and in their folder. Trashed boards no longer open from old links.

If something goes wrong

The Undo toast is gone.
Open Trash in the sidebar and choose Restore.
The board is not in Trash.
It may have passed 30 days or been deleted forever; those cannot be recovered.
