Overview

Deleting a Form removes it permanently from your Library. You can only delete a Form that is not in use — if it is still assigned to learners or included in a Pathway, you will need to remove it from those first. This guide walks through the steps and explains how to resolve the error you may see if the Form is still in use.

How to delete a Form

1. In the main navigation, open Content, then select Forms & Quizzes.

2. You will see a list of the Forms you can manage.

3. Find the Form you want to delete.

4. On the right-hand side of its row, click the trash icon.

5. A confirmation window appears, asking whether you are sure you want to delete the Form.

6. Click Confirm delete.

Things to keep in mind

• You can only delete a Form that has no assigned learnings.
• If the Form is still in use, you will see this error message: "Form cannot be deleted as it is being used in one or more active pathways or learning assignments".

• To proceed, first remove the Form from any active assignments or Pathways — you can bulk delete these from the quick view — and then delete the Form.

FAQs

Why can't I delete my Form?
The Form is still in use. It cannot be deleted while it is assigned to learners or included in an active Pathway, so you will need to remove it from those first.

How do I remove the Form from its assignments?
Open the quick view for the Form and use the bulk delete option to remove the assignments, then return to the list and delete the Form.

Who can do this

Owners, Admins, Managers, Content Managers and Instructors can delete a Form — these roles have manage access to Forms. People Managers, Employees and Restricted users have read-only access to Forms and cannot delete them.
