# Delete a legacy form

Want to get rid of a form? They're simple to delete.

> [!TIP]
> Tip
> 
> If you think you might want to use or copy a form later, there's no need to delete it. Just don't [associate the form](/v1/docs/associating-forms-with-roles) with any roles. That way, no one will see it, but you can still access the form later.

You can't delete a form if it's the only one belonging to a table. In other words, if you see only one form on this tab, you can't delete it. You also can't delete forms that are set for roles or reports.

## Forms you can't delete

You can't delete some forms:

- When the form is used in a notification.
- When a form is assigned to display for one or more roles.

To delete a form:

1. Open the table that contains the form that you want to delete. Select **Settings**, then select **Forms**.
2. Complete one of the following tasks:

To delete more than one form, select the checkbox next to the name of the forms that you want to delete, then select **![Delete icon](https://cdn.document360.io/dd260e4e-10bb-4b66-8fb3-5504c272b904/Images/Documentation/16298440596116.png) Delete** at the top of the table.

To delete a single form, select the delete icon ![Delete icon](https://cdn.document360.io/dd260e4e-10bb-4b66-8fb3-5504c272b904/Images/Documentation/16298440596116.png), to the right of the form that you want to delete.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> If you don't see the delete icon for the form, and you have multiple forms for a table, the form is probably used by a role or report. Select **Set how different roles use these forms** and **Override role settings by report sections** to check whether any roles or reports use that form. If a role or report uses a form, you cannot delete that form. Associate a different form with the roles or reports.
3. Select **Delete** to confirm the deletion.
