Deleting a Topic

The Collaborate app allows you to delete any topic that was created by you — as long as that topic does not include any assignments. If your account has supervisor-level access, you can delete any topic at any time — even if the topic includes one or more assignments.

If your topic contains one or more assignments that you want to save, you must move the assignments to a new topic before deleting the topic. For more information, see Moving an Assignment to a New Topic.

n You cannot delete the Assignment Landing Zone topic.

Complete the following process to delete a topic from the Collaborate app.

To delete a topic:
