Use this interactive demo to learn how to delete a workflow in n8n.

‍

It is very easy to delete a workflow in n8n. Here’s a short tutorial on how to do it in simple steps:

‍

  1. On n8n's main dashboard, find the workflow you want to delete and then click the 'More Options' button next to it.
  2. Choose 'Archive' from the list of options.
  3. After that, click the 'Filter' button.
  4. Subsequently, tick the checkbox beside 'Show Archived Workflows'.
  5. Once again, tap the 'More Options' button next to the archived workflow.
  6. Tap 'Delete' afterwards.
  7. Following that, click 'Yes, Delete' to confirm your request.
  8. Finally, the selected n8n workflow will be deleted.

📌 Why this matters

Deleting workflows keeps your dashboard organized and prevents confusion when managing multiple automation projects. You'll avoid accidentally triggering outdated processes or mistaking old workflows for current ones. The two-step archive-then-delete process acts as a safety net, protecting you from losing work due to misclicks.

This becomes crucial when collaborating with teams, as clean workspaces reduce onboarding time for new members and eliminate the risk of someone activating deprecated automations that could disrupt your current operations or data flows.
