No longer working on a project? You can leave it in Workly to remove it from your sidebar and stop receiving project notifications.

Leave a project

  1. Open the project
  2. Go to Project Settings
  3. Click Leave Project
  4. Confirm your decision

After leaving, the project is removed from your sidebar and you won’t receive notifications for it. You can be re-added by a project admin.

Remove a member

Project admins can remove members:

  1. Open the project’s Members panel
  2. Find the member to remove
  3. Click Remove

Removed members lose access to the project and all its tasks.

The project creator is the project owner. The owner cannot leave the project — they must delete it or transfer ownership first.
