Export or delete your workspace
Take a copy of everything in your Adduce workspace, and schedule the workspace for deletion with a seven-day window to change your mind.
Your work is yours to take away, and yours to end. Both live at the bottom of Settings → General, and both are admin-only.
Before you begin
- Role: Admin. Neither card is rendered for a Member, so a member cannot export or delete anything.
- For a deletion, tell the rest of the workspace first. Everyone loses access the moment it is scheduled.
Steps
Open Settings → General. Organization name and Organization logo are at the top, and the two cards below them are the ones this page is about.
Choose Export workspace data. A row appears reading Preparing… while the archive is built, and the button is unavailable until it finishes — one export is prepared at a time.
When the archive is ready the row turns into a Download button that names the day it expires. Exports stay available for seven days, and you can ask for another as soon as the current one is ready. If one fails, the row offers Retry.
Know what the archive holds: your workspace content — projects, evidence, themes, findings, briefs and their comments, investigations, transcripts with their original files, connected sources, objectives, key results and strategy. It does not hold enquiries, billing records or notifications.
Delete workspace schedules the workspace for permanent deletion in seven days. There is no dialog and nothing to type: press and hold the button for five seconds, and it fills as it arms. Everyone loses access straight away.
Within those seven days an admin can undo it — the card becomes Cancel deletion, which returns the workspace to normal access. This one card calls that person an owner, where the rest of the product says Admin; they are the same role. After seven days everything is removed for good, and no one can bring it back.
Deleting against letting a subscription lapse
They end the same way and on different clocks, so choose the one you mean.
| Delete workspace | Cancel subscription | |
|---|---|---|
| Access | Gone immediately | Every change refused once the paid period ends |
| Window to change your mind | 7 days, with Cancel deletion | 30 days, by starting a plan again |
| Export still possible | No | Yes, throughout the hold |
| At the end | Everything is removed | Everything is removed |
Export first if you want a copy. Once a deletion runs there is nothing left to export.
What's next
- Manage your plan and seats — cancel or restart a subscription instead.
- Manage members and roles — hand the workspace to another admin rather than closing it.
- Get started — what a workspace holds, if you are deciding whether to keep it.
Manage your plan and seats
Read the plan your Adduce workspace is on, buy or release seats, find your invoices, and change the card the subscription is charged to.
