Delete photos from Teamspace

Remove photos from the team library, who's allowed to, and what it does and doesn't affect.

When you’d do this

You want to remove test shots, duplicates, or photos uploaded to the wrong project from your team’s photo library in Teamspace.

What you need

Role: Team Owner, Team Admin, or any role with "Delete photos" enabled
Surface: App and Web
Plan: Free · Business
Affects: Removes the team copy from Teamspace

Delete photos

Open Photos in Teamspace.
Select the photo, or select multiple photos.
Click Delete.
Confirm.

In the App, long-press a photo in Teamspace to start selecting, tick any others, then tap Delete in the tool panel at the bottom.

Who can delete

Deletion is controlled by the Delete photos permission, set per member under member access. The scope decides which photos that member can delete:

Scope	What they can delete
All Photos	Any photo in the team
Own only	Only photos that member captured
Deny	Nothing

Without permission, the web hides the delete option. The App still shows Delete and says you don’t have permission when you tap it.

Common pitfalls

Export before deleting. Deleted team photos are not kept in a Teamspace trash. See Export as ZIP.
The member’s phone keeps its original. Deleting in Teamspace removes the team copy only. The photo on the member’s device is a separate, on-device copy and isn’t deleted. To delete that, the member removes it in the App. See Delete a photo.
A synced cloud copy stays. If the project syncs to Google Drive or SharePoint, a photo already uploaded there isn’t removed when you delete it in Teamspace. Remove it in that folder too if needed.
