I’ve been trying to delete a published interface but can’t find where to delete it. I opened the interface and looked for a delete button but couldn’t find one. I exited the interface and went to my workspace to see all of the bases and interfaces I have, but I couldn’t find an option to delete it there.

Thank you in advance.

Very bad UX, but I discovered how to do it:

  1. Go into Edit-Mode
  2. On top right directly below the “Edit”/“Publish Done” button, you see the interface name and its icon → click on the three dots “…” appearing on hover
  3. Click on “Delete”

Thank you for sharing. It was extremely helpful.

Additional confusing thing is that if you're inside of one page of the interface, you first need to click "All Pages" in order to go back and be able to see the Interface name and the three dots "..." (and by default you're directed to the first page when you enter Edit mode)

Yet I don't have 3 dots next to "Done" and cannot figure out how to delete an interface. Driving me crazy.

I don't see the 3 dots at all. I can't find where to delete the interface no matter what. I ABSOLUTELY HATE AIRTABLE.

I can't find 3 dots either --- I have looked all over and I just can't seem to delete the Interface or the page under the interface

Thank you so much. This is the answer I was looking for.  What an awful design, yikes.

hi there, i'm a bit of a super-basic user but was having the same problem and found an alternate solution..

i also could not see the "3 dots" in the corner of my newly created "test" interface, which took over my interface universe. all i could see there was an option to print it.

i decided to see how i could find my existing(?) previous interface (labor of love). and i recalled it populated the interface home page after i created with Form Builder in one of my tabs. so i went back into that tab, pretended i was creating another form. clicked "Continue ->" in the *new* Try an upgraded form building experience window - and BAM!!, it took me to the interface home page.

there i found my "test" interface on the left bar, and thus i was able to delete it. see screenshots below..

Hope this helps!

THANK YOU!!! I had no idea what everyone else was talking about. I could not see any of that. This worked and was very helpful, thank you!
