When managing tests in WeCP, you may need to delete candidates' data for various reasons, such as cleaning up old data or managing privacy regulations. We offer two ways to delete data:

  1. Delete the Entire Test

  2. Delete Specific Candidates of a Test

Note: Once data is deleted, it cannot be recovered. Make sure to double-check your selections before confirming deletion.

Here's how to proceed with both methods:


1. Deleting the Entire Test

If you wish to delete all data related to a test, including the candidates' results, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to WeCP and navigate to the Tests section.

  2. Click on the test you want to delete.

  3. Go to the Settings tab located within the test dashboard.

  4. Click on General Settings.

  5. Scroll down and find the option to Delete Test.

  6. Confirm the deletion.

This will remove the test and all associated candidate data from your organization permanently.


2. Deleting Specific Candidates' Data from a Test

If you only want to delete data for specific candidates without deleting the entire test, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to WeCP and navigate to the Tests section.

  2. Select the test that contains the candidates whose data you wish to delete.

  3. Click on the Candidates tab within the test dashboard.

  4. To delete multiple candidates, either:

    • Select all candidates or

    • Select specific candidates by checking the boxes next to their names.

  5. Click on Bulk Actions.

  6. Choose Delete tests from the dropdown menu.

  7. Confirm the deletion.

This action will remove the selected candidates' data from the test.
