Danger zone#
- Transfer: send the site to another workspace. Someone with permission there accepts. The site id, data and settings move with it, so the snippet doesn't change.
- Reset data deletes events for a date range. It can't be undone.
- Delete site: confirm by typing the domain. The site is soft-deleted for 7 days (collection stops), then permanently deleted.
Most settings are also API operations with the
sites.manage permission.
