**Summary:** An overview of deleting a collection and the impact it has on existing tickets

You can delete a collection with one or more tickets. When you delete a collection, you remove the corresponding view and any information about the collection’s corresponding auto ticketing configuration. The platform will retain any existing tickets and continue to sync changes.

## Disabling Auto-Ticketing

To delete the collection, go to the collection detail view. If auto-ticketing is enabled, the **DELETE COLLECTION** option will be disabled. To disable auto ticketing, choose **EDIT CONFIGURATION**.

From the **Edit Configuration Dialogue** dialogue, go the **Ticketing** section. Switch off ticketing and **Save**.

## Deleting the Collection

When auto-ticketing becomes disabled, the **DELETE COLLECTION** option becomes active. Once you click on **DELETE COLLECTION**, you will see a dialogue describing the consequences of removing the collection.
