# Delete a workflow


> Delete a workflow you built, and why shared System workflows cannot be deleted.


Canonical URL: https://www.copyhero.app/help/workflows/delete-workflows

You can delete the workflows you built. The **Workflows** page has no delete
button: ask the CopyHero assistant to delete it.

## Delete one of your workflows [#delete-one-of-your-workflows]

1. Open the assistant from the sidebar and ask it to delete the workflow by
   name, for example "Delete my workflow My import workflow".
2. The assistant looks the workflow up and asks you to confirm.
3. Confirm. The workflow disappears from **Workflows** and from the **Start
   Workflow** list.

Deleting a workflow does not delete its tasks, which stay under **Tasks**. If
the workflow was the workflow of an [import profile](/help/settings/import-profiles),
the profile simply has no workflow afterwards.

## Workflows you cannot delete [#workflows-you-cannot-delete]

The **Owner** column on **Workflows** shows **You** for your own workflows and
**System** for the ready-made ones that come with CopyHero. A System workflow is
shared by every account, so nobody but CopyHero can change or delete it. A
delete attempt is refused with "Not enough permissions". Leave it unused, or
build your own with [Build a workflow](/help/workflows/build-workflow).
