Delete program in Control Center

How do I completely delete all traces of a program in the Control Center? There's no delete option under Manage Program.

According to the Smartsheet Help Article linked below, you need to submit a support request to delete a program.

Go to the list of programs, hover over the program you want to delete, click the kebob icon and select "Delete".

Keep in mind, you'll also need to manually delete the associated content as well.

Hmmm... unfortunately I don't have that option (see screen print). Could it be due to me not having some kind of permissions in the Control Center?

I can't see what's to the right of the menu, in the main portion of the Control Center screen. Do you see a list of projects? If not, then you may not own any of the projects in Control Center or you're not an Admin.

I do have a list of projects within the program. I'm able to create, delete, and archive those projects without any issue. I'm hoping to delete the program overall. It was used for testing and I'd like to remove it.

Oh, do you mean you want to delete the Blueprint? To do that you must be a primary lead or admin and you also need to first delete all the associated projects.

It will display like this:

Hi Ami,

You are addressing how to delete PARTS of a program inside of Control Center - but the question (and I'm looking for an answer myself as well) is how to delete the ENTIRE PROGRAM. I created one for practice and I no longer want it. There doesn't seem to be a way to simply delete the program.

@Patrick Yaeger That's crazy, but thanks for pointing it out!
