How to delete “space” in Google Chat

What’s changing 

Google is bringing the ability to delete named spaces in Google Chat to the Business Standard and Business Starter versions of Google Workspace. It is intended that this feature will extend this capability to more versions of Google Workspace next year.

With this ability, space creators can completely remove it from Chat, including all space owned content, room tasks, and files and attachments not saved elsewhere. . In addition, members will not be able to access the space, its files, or the member list once it has been deleted.

Why it’s important

Through deletion, you can easily navigate and stay on top of your most relevant spaces and eliminate clutter in Google Chat. 

Additional details

Lưu ý quan trọng: Tính năng này không khả dụng cho các phiên bản Google Workspace có Google Vault. Nếu bạn nâng cấp từ Google Workspace Business Standard hoặc Business Starter lên phiên bản hỗ trợ Google Vault, bạn sẽ mất khả năng xóa các Spaces đã đặt tên.

We anticipate that this feature will be available to all versions of Google Workspace in 2022. We will provide an update on the Workspace Update Blog when it becomes available.
