Deleting a task is permanent. The one decision that matters is what happens to its videos: they can go with the task, or stay in the workspace unlinked so you can attach them elsewhere.
Delete one task
- Open the task and click the ··· menu at the top of the panel.
- Choose Delete Task.
- If the task has videos, pick one option:
- Delete task only — the videos stay in the system with no linked task.
- Delete task and videos — the task and every attached video are deleted permanently.
- Click Delete.
A task with no videos skips step 3 and just asks you to confirm.
Warning: Delete task and videos cannot be undone. If you only wanted the task gone, choose Delete task only — the footage stays and can be linked to another task later.
Delete several tasks
- Select the tasks. Hold Ctrl/Cmd to add to the selection.
- In the actions bar, click Delete.
- Confirm.
A bulk delete always keeps the videos. Only the tasks go.
There is no task archive
A task is either active or deleted. If your goal is to get finished work out of the way, use one of these instead:
- Move the task to a status marked Final, then turn on Delivered and cancelled go last in the Filter panel so it drops to the bottom of every list.
- Set the phase to Finished or Cancelled.
- Filter the board down to the statuses you are actually working on.
Clients are different: they can be archived, which keeps their whole history while taking them out of the everyday lists.
