As a newbie, I can’t seem to figure out how to delete a data source I added. I created a sample Excel file in my OneDrive to better learn how syncing works. Now that I understand this, I want to remove both the synced table and source from Glide. However, unlike imported Glide tables, there doesn’t seem to be a “delete” option. How do I remove this table and data source from Glide completely?

Can you unlink the tables instead of deleteing them?

Yes. Is that all I need to do?

Based on this thread, yes.

> Hi, This feels like a really obvious thing but I have connected two different excel spreadsheets to my glide app but want to delete one- is there a way I can do this without having to go and unlink each individual table? Thank you, Sam
