Will Deleting a Project Impact My Application?

Issue

I want to know if deleting a Sentry project will break my app when I can’t remove the SDK/DSN from the code yet.

Applies To

  • All SaaS Customers and Self-Hosted Users

  • Project Settings

Resolution

No. Deleting the project does not change how your application runs. The SDK can continue sending events, but Sentry will reject them - they won’t be stored or count against your quota. You may see failed ingest requests in the browser or network console.

Project deletion is permanent, and the project data cannot be restored.

To delete a project, go to Project Settings → General Settings → Remove Project at the bottom of the page.

If you just need to temporarily stop ingest, I’d recommend disabling the Client Key (DSN) instead of deleting the project. You can also remove or gate the SDK initialization in your code when you’re able to.
