Projects

Group the sessions, documents, memory cards, people and action items of one piece of work into a project, and see them together on one page.

A project groups everything about one piece of work, such as a client, a deal, a product or a hire: its sessions, documents, memory cards, people, companies and action items. Projects are optional. You can use TalkBar without them.

Move a project to Trash

From a project's menu (on the Projects page or in Settings → Projects), choose Move to Trash. The project disappears from pickers and the sidebar. Its sessions, documents and memories stay until you delete the project permanently from Deleted projects in Settings → Projects. Published session links stay live.

From Deleted projects you can Restore a project or delete it permanently. A permanent delete lets you choose Delete everything or Keep contents. See Projects, topics and keywords settings.
