Delete a Claude project from the inventory

The Delete Project built-in action permanently deletes a Claude project from your Claude Enterprise organization, without building an automation first. The project’s custom instructions and knowledge documents are deleted with it.

Before you begin

• A role that is allowed to use the Delete Project action. See Restrict built-in actions for a role.
• Claude Enterprise is in Preview. It is available when your Subscription includes the Claude Enterprise connector.
• An Anthropic Compliance Access Key with the delete:compliance_user_data scope, entered on the Automations/Actions tab of Manage consent. See Anthropic consent.
• A project with no chats attached. Anthropic does not delete a project while chats are still attached to it.
