How do I delete a zap?

How do I delete a zap.  I sent a few to the trash, but they’re still counting against my total.  Is there a way to delete them from the trash without waiting 30 days for them to auto-delete?

Hi @Lana H. 

Good question.

Zaps that are OFF do not count against your Zap limit.

Hey @Lana H. Thank you so much for using Zapier Community! Happy to help here. 

 

About Zap deletion; When a Zap is moved to the Trash folder, the tasks run by that Zap no longer appear in Zap History. However, Zapier’s metered Tasks usage under your Settings > Billing and Usage continue to count these tasks.

 

At present, there’s no direct way to delete the Zaps immediately as it will stay in your Trash Folder for 30 days. This feature is intended so you can still have a chance to restore the Zap that you might still need. 

 

I hope that helps! Please let me know if I can further assist.
