Deleting a Workflow

How to delete a workflow and what to be aware of.

Overview

Deleting a workflow removes its definition from your workspace permanently. The workflow disappears from the Workflows list, any future scheduled or webhook executions stop, and the canvas can no longer be opened. Deletion is the right move when a workflow is no longer needed and you are confident nothing else depends on it.

If you are unsure whether you will need the workflow again, disable it instead. A disabled workflow keeps its definition, history, and version log intact and can be re-enabled with one click. Deletion, by contrast, cannot be undone.

Before You Start

Owner access on the workflow. Editors and Viewers cannot delete.
Confirmation that no other workflow calls this one through a Subworkflow node.
Any execution logs you want to keep have been exported or noted, since they age out after deletion.

Steps

Open the Workflows page from the sidebar.
Find the workflow you want to delete. Use search if the list is long.
Click the menu icon on the workflow card and select Delete.
Read the confirmation dialog and type the workflow name if prompted.
Click Delete to confirm. Spojit removes the workflow and returns you to the list.

What Gets Deleted

The workflow definition and all saved versions.
Future scheduled executions are cancelled.
The webhook URL stops responding (returns 404).
Email trigger inbox monitoring stops.

What Is Preserved

Past execution logs remain queryable for the standard retention period before aging out.
Connections used by the workflow are untouched and remain available to other workflows.
Knowledge collections referenced by the workflow are not deleted.

Tips

Disable first, wait a few days, then delete. If nothing breaks during that window, the workflow was safe to remove.
Before deleting, search your other workflows for a Subworkflow node pointing at this one.
If you need an archive, export the workflow definition first by copying the JSON from the designer.

Common Pitfalls

Deletion is permanent. There is no trash bin or undo.
External systems that POST to the workflow's webhook will start receiving 404 responses immediately.
Subworkflow callers will fail at runtime once the called workflow is gone. Check first.
Deleting a workflow does not delete the underlying Connections, so credentials remain in your workspace.
