# Deleting records

Syncek deletes records from a table, one or many at a time, or from the record's
own page, and [every role except Guest](https://syncek.com/docs/get-started/roles-and-permissions) can do it. There is no bin and no restore:
a deleted record leaves every table, board and list, and nobody in the workspace
can bring it back. If you might want the data again,
[export](https://syncek.com/docs/your-data/exporting) it first.

## From a table

Open the menu at the end of a row, choose **Delete**, and confirm. To delete
several, tick their rows and click **Delete** in the bar that appears. With two
or more ticked, Syncek asks first. With only one ticked, it deletes that record
straight away.

A board has no delete. Switch to a table view to delete from it.

## From a record page

Open **More options**, the menu at the top of the page, choose **Delete record**
and confirm. Syncek takes you back to the object's table.

## What happens to what it touched

- Records linked to it are not deleted with it.
- It drops out of every list it was in.
- Pictures stored in its **Image** fields are deleted with it.

To take back a whole import, [undo it](https://syncek.com/docs/your-data/undoing-an-import) rather than
deleting its records by hand.

## Removing from a list is not deleting

Inside a [list](https://syncek.com/docs/your-data/lists), the action is **Remove from list**. The record
stays in its object, and only its place in the list goes, along with any values
the list kept for it.
