How can I delete items in Pipedrive?
Maintaining an effective Pipedrive database can sometimes mean cleaning out data. However, we recognize that not every user should have the ability to delete potentially valuable information from your account.
To allow you to keep your data secure, the ability to delete in Pipedrive is an option that can be enabled for certain user groups in permission sets.
As a user with account settings, if you would like to adjust permissions regarding the deletion of deals or activities for certain users in your Pipedrive account, you can do so by going to Settings > Manage users > Permission sets and adjusting those options to your preference.
