Confirm ownership and backups

Only the owner can delete the server. Save any information you are authorized to retain and transfer ownership if the community should continue.

Delete on desktop

Open the server menu > Server Settings, scroll to Delete Server and follow the confirmation prompt.

Delete on mobile

Open the server, tap its name > Settings > Overview, then use Delete Server and confirm.

Complete security checks

Enter the server name or a two-factor code if prompted. Deletion is permanent, so cancel if you selected the wrong server.

Video walkthrough

If it does not work

  • If Delete Server is missing, confirm that you own the server. Administrators and moderators cannot delete a server they do not own.
  • If Discord asks for a two-factor code, use the code from your configured authenticator. Never send that code to another person.
