Only the workspace owner can delete it. You must resolve any active subscription before deletion can continue.

Prepare before closing

Tell the people who use this workspace that you are closing it. Check the workspace name in the switcher, especially if your account belongs to more than one workspace. Request a workspace export, wait until it is ready, and download it. Save any records you need before removing access. If Cancel your subscription first appears, use Go to billing and cancel the subscription. If you cannot manage billing, ask an administrator who can. Return to Workspace settings after the cancellation is confirmed.

Delete the workspace

1

Open the deletion control

Go to Settings → Workspace settings and scroll to Delete workspace.
2

Read the confirmation

Select Delete workspace. Check the workspace name and the export notice. If your export is still being prepared, cancel and wait for it.
3

Enter the workspace name

Type the exact name shown in the confirmation. The final action remains unavailable until it matches.
4

Confirm deletion

Select Delete workspace again. The workspace locks immediately and you move to another available workspace, or to the workspace creation page if none remains.

Understand recovery

All members lose access immediately. You cannot undo deletion yourself. Contact Begin support within 90 days if you need the workspace recovered.
Begin does not notify members: the workspace disappears from their switcher, and anyone who had it open moves to another workspace. After the recovery period, the workspace and everyone’s data are permanently deleted. Anonymous statistics and Begin’s own accounting and audit records remain. Do not rely on the recovery period as a substitute for downloading your export. Deleting this workspace does not delete your personal account or your other workspaces.
