Deleting an application safely

What the Danger zone removes, what it keeps and what to do before you press the button.

Deleting an application removes its files, PHP pool, web server configuration, SFTP users, cron and certificate. Its databases are kept unless you choose to drop them too.

Deleting cannot be undone from the console. Download a backup first (Download a backup).

  1. Download what you need

    From Backups, download files and database of the last night, or ask us for a fresh backup.

  2. Point the domains away

    Or they will show an error page once the application is gone.

  3. Delete

    Danger zone tab, type the application's name to confirm.
