Detaching a project

GroupShare projects can be fully removed from the system using the Detach Project option. Unlike archiving, detaching removes all traces of the project from the server.

The project is packaged and saved to the location set in GroupShare Console. This feature is only available to users with Delete Project permission (by default, Administrator, Power User and Project Manager accounts).

To detach a project:

  1. Select one or more projects that have status Completed or Archived and you want to detach.
  2. Click the Detach Project button.
  3. In the prompt, choose if you want to delete the project's translation memories or not. A background task is scheduled to run the process.

The detached project cannot be restored from the web interface.
