Requesting Workspace or Account Deletion

Deletion requests allow workspace owners and account holders to formally submit a request to have their Helios workspace or personal account permanently removed. Because there is no self-serve delete option in the platform, all deletion requests are submitted through the Helios Support panel and handled by the Helios team.

🏷️ Key Terms
WorkspaceYour organization's dedicated environment within Helios, where all members, files, gigs, catalogs, and platform activity are housed under one account.
AccountYour individual Helios user profile, including your login credentials, personal settings, and activity history.
Deletion RequestA support submission asking the Helios team to permanently remove your workspace or account from the platform.
Helios Support PanelThe in-platform support tool, accessed via the lightbulb icon in the top navigation bar, used to submit requests to the Helios team.
🔄 Understanding the Deletion Process

Workspace and account deletion cannot be completed directly from your settings. To protect your data and prevent accidental removal, all deletions are processed manually by the Helios team. Once you submit your request, either through Account Settings or the Helios Support panel, the team will follow up to confirm and complete the deletion.

This process applies to both workspace deletion (removing your entire organization's environment) and individual account deletion (removing your personal user profile).

🗑️ How to Submit a Deletion Request

There are two ways to submit a deletion request depending on what you need to remove.

Option 1 — Delete Your Account via Settings

Use this method to request permanent deletion of your individual Helios account.

01
Click your user avatar (profile photo) in the bottom-left corner of the navigation panel (for Customer Portal) or the Settings icon at the right corner of the left navigation panel (for Expert Portal).
02
Look for the Danger Zone section and click Delete Your Account.
03
When prompted, retype the email address associated with your account to confirm.
04
Click Delete Account to submit your request.

This sends a permanent account deletion request to the Helios support team. They will review it and follow up with you by email before any action is taken.

Option 2 — Delete Your Workspace or Account via the Support Panel

Use this method to request workspace deletion, or as an alternative method for account deletion.

01
Click the lightbulb icon in the top-right corner of the navigation bar to open the Helios Support panel.
02
Select Delete Workspace or Account.
03
In the Title field, enter a brief description of your request — for example, "Delete my workspace" or "Delete my account."
04
In the Description field, provide relevant details, including whether you are requesting workspace deletion, account deletion, or both, and any context the Helios team may need.
05
Click Send to submit your request.

The Helios team will review your submission and reach out to confirm the deletion before any action is taken.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who can submit a workspace deletion request?
Any workspace member can submit a deletion request through the Support panel. However, only the workspace Owner can authorize the final deletion. The Helios team will confirm with the Owner before proceeding.
Can I delete just my account without deleting the workspace?
Yes. Use Option 1 (Account Settings) to request deletion of your individual account without affecting the workspace. If you are requesting both, use Option 2 and specify both in your description.
Is deletion permanent?
Yes. Once a workspace or account is deleted, the action cannot be undone. All data, files, gigs, and member records associated with the workspace or account will be permanently removed. Back up any information you need before submitting your request.
How long does the deletion process take?
Processing times may vary. The Helios team will contact you after receiving your request to confirm details and provide a timeline.
What happens to active gigs or services when a workspace is deleted?
The Helios team will advise you on any active engagements or pending transactions that need to be resolved before deletion can be completed.
🔧 Troubleshooting
I can't find the Delete Account option in Settings.
Go to Settings → Manage Account and scroll to the bottom of the page. If you still cannot locate it, use the Helios Support panel (Option 2) to submit your request.
I can't find the Delete Workspace or Account option in the Support panel.
Open the Helios Support panel by clicking the lightbulb icon in the top navigation bar. Scroll to the bottom of the support category list. Delete Workspace or Account is the last option.
I submitted a request but haven't heard back.
Check your registered email inbox, including your spam or junk folder. If you have not received a response within a reasonable timeframe, resubmit your request through the Support panel with a note that it is a follow-up.
💡 Tips for Workspace and Account Deletion
  • Before submitting a deletion request, go to Settings → Manage Members to review all active members on your workspace. Informing your team before requesting deletion ensures no one loses access to important data unexpectedly.
  • If you have active subscriptions or platform invoices, visit Settings → Platform Invoices to review any outstanding charges before your workspace is removed.
  • Make sure to download or back up any files, records, or data you need from Helios Drive before submitting your deletion request. This cannot be recovered after deletion is processed.
