Disabling a workspace

2. Find and select the desired workspace.
3. Then, click on the More >

Workspaces that have been disabled can be enabled again. To do so, go to the Management > Workspace menu, enable the "Inactive" filter and run a search.

Deleting tasks from the board

button located at the top.
