How Do I Delete a Project in Office 365?

Published in Project Management 2 mins read

You can't directly delete a project within Office 365. Office 365 doesn't have a central project management feature. Projects are typically managed within individual applications like Microsoft Teams, Planner, or Project Online. To delete a project, you need to follow the specific steps within the application where the project is located.

Here are some common ways to delete projects in different Office 365 applications:

Deleting a Project in Microsoft Teams:

  1. Navigate to the team: Open the Microsoft Teams application and go to the team where your project is located.
  2. Access the project channel: Find the channel where your project is stored.
  3. Delete the channel: Right-click on the channel name and select "Delete channel".

Deleting a Project in Microsoft Planner:

  1. Open the Planner board: Go to the Planner board where your project is located.
  2. Select the project: Click on the project name to open its view.
  3. Delete the project: Click on the "More options" icon (three dots) in the top right corner and select "Delete plan".

Deleting a Project in Microsoft Project Online:

  1. Open Project Online: Access your Project Online account through your web browser.
  2. Select the project: Locate the project you want to delete from the list.
  3. Delete the project: Click on the "More actions" icon (three dots) and select "Delete".

Remember to backup any important data before deleting a project, as this action is generally irreversible.
