# deleteDatabase

Move a whole database, one of its tables (pass table) or one of its dashboards (pass dashboard) to the trash. It can be restored in the app for 30 days, after which it is gone for good. A database or a table goes with every row in it and needs admin access; a dashboard needs write access. A table that another table links to cannot be deleted until that link is removed. To take a page or a visual out of a dashboard, use saveDatabaseDashboard. getDatabaseGuide topic deleting.
