Deleting a link

Exactly what you can delete, or even whether you can delete links at all, depends on your permission level. You might also need to check with the owner of the record before you delete it.

About this task

Depending on how your database is configured, you might have soft delete enabled. If soft delete is enabled, deleted records do not appear in any search results; however, the deleted records can still be restored until they have been purged.

Procedure

To delete a link:

  1. Find the link.

  2. Depending on your organization, you might need to check with the owner of the record before you delete the link. If you need to do this, the owner's username will be displayed as part of the link details.

  3. Click Delete or press Ctrl+D to remove the link (you see a confirmation dialog before the deletion completes).
