Detailed Steps to Delete Your Asana Account
1. Log in to Your Asana Account
To begin, open the Asana app (mobile or desktop) or go to the Asana website and sign in using your credentials (email and password). Ensure you’re logged into the account that you wish to delete.
2. Navigate to Account Settings
Once you’re logged in:
- Mobile Users: Tap your profile picture in the top-right corner, and from the bottom menu, select “Account.” Then click on “View profile.”
- Desktop/Web Users: Click your profile picture in the top-right corner, and from the dropdown menu, select “Settings.”
3. Find the “Delete Account” Option
- Mobile Users: Scroll down to the bottom of your profile and look for the “Delete Account” option. Click it.
- Desktop/Web Users: In the “Settings” window, go to the “Account” tab and scroll to the bottom where you’ll find the “Delete My Account” option.
4. Confirm the Deletion
After selecting the “Delete Account” option, Asana will guide you through a few prompts to confirm the permanent deletion of your account. Follow the on-screen instructions to finalize the process.
5. Wait for Confirmation
Once confirmed, your account will be deleted within 30 days. You will immediately lose access to your Asana account and all associated data. If you change your mind, you must contact Asana support before the account is fully deleted.
Important Note: If you are part of an organization or workspace, your data will appear as “Deleted User” to others in the organization.
Deleting a Paid Asana Account
If you have a paid account or are part of a paid workspace, the process is a little different:
- For Individual Users: Contact the billing owner or admin of your workspace to request that your account be deleted.
- For Billing Owners or Admins: Transfer your role to another team member before requesting deletion to avoid issues with ongoing billing.
Admins or super admins should ensure they have transferred their responsibilities before requesting account deletion. After doing this, contact Asana support to finalize the process.
Deleting an Organization or Workspace
Deleting an entire organization or workspace is a highly sensitive process. This action can only be performed by super admins or billing owners. Once initiated, the deletion of the workspace or organization takes 90 days to complete, and all data is permanently cleared within 180 days. This action is irreversible, so be certain before proceeding.
To request the deletion of an organization or workspace, contact Asana support with your credentials as the billing owner or super admin.
