Delete a Collection

Deleting a collection deletes the document list or search criteria that define the collection's view. It does not delete the documents themselves. To delete the documents within a collection, see Delete And Undelete Documents And Folders.

Note:

  • Before deleting a dynamic collection, resolve any dependencies on the collection such as report definitions and read-only PowerWeb start pages.

  • The My Search Results collection cannot be deleted. To replace its contents, save the results of a new search to the collection as described in Create And Edit a Collection.
