# Deleting a Campaign Draft
## Description

It's possible to completely delete a campaign draft from your account. There is, however, a restriction on deleting campaigns; they can only be deleted in draft mode or before they are sent.

## Why It's Important

You'll be able to clean up your draft list using this option if it's cluttered with drafts you won't use and that cause confusion. You might have created a duplicate that no longer serves a purpose, so delete it here to keep your workspace organized.
