Edit, archive, and delete a project

Rename a project, change its colour, and understand what deleting removes.

Before you begin

You need to be the project's owner, a collaborator with Full access, or an Owner, Admin, or Manager in the workspace that holds it. See Project permissions.

Rename a project

  1. Hover over the project in the sidebar.
  2. Select the menu.
  3. Select Rename.
  4. Type the new name and press Enter.

Renaming changes the project's web address. Old links to it stop resolving, so if you have shared a link, send the new one.

Change the colour

  1. Open the project's menu.
  2. Select a colour.

The change is immediate and visible to everyone with access.

Pin and unpin

Open the menu and select Add to favourites, or Remove from favourites on a pinned project.

Move a project into a folder

Drag the project onto a folder in the sidebar, or use Move to folder in its menu. Drag it back out to the main list to unfile it. See Group projects into folders.

Delete a project

  1. Open the project's menu.
  2. Select Delete.
  3. Read the confirmation and select Delete again.

Any time already tracked against a workspace project remains in your agency's timesheets and reports, deleting a project does not erase recorded hours.

Archiving

There is no separate archive state for projects. If you want to keep a finished project's history without it cluttering the sidebar, leave it in place and unpin it, completed tasks do not count toward your active-task limit.

Leaving a project someone shared with you

If a project was shared with you and you no longer want it, open its menu and select Leave project. It disappears from your sidebar. The owner keeps it, and can share it with you again later.
