# Delete CRM data

**8x8 Contact Center** agents can delete customer, case, and task records from the **Local CRM** if the contact center administrator has granted the necessary permissions. If you do not have the permissions, you cannot delete data.

### Before you begin

Before deleting CRM data, note that:

- Deleting a customer record permanently removes the customer information as well as all associated cases, follow-ups, and attachments.
- Deleting a case record permanently removes the case information as well as all associated follow-ups and attachments.
- You cannot restore any portion of deleted CRM records.

**To delete selected CRM records:**

1. Log in to 8x8 Agent Workspace.
2. From the three CRM tabs (Customers, Cases, Tasks), select the object you wish to delete the data from. Based on your permissions, you can delete customers, cases, or tasks.
3. Click **Delete** next to the CRM record to delete records individually. You are prompted to confirm. OR Click **Search** and perform a **Basic** or **Advanced** search to retrieve the data records you wish to delete. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/e3a59e39-abd3-4423-964c-0a4008dc5673/Images/Documentation/delete-CRM-data.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-03T23%3A57%3A52Z&se=2026-11-04T00%3A57%3A52Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=EycGxOXS6phfXXfndNxLln8gKggqA43nOVicRXRtuTk%3D)
