Hi @Prady A

Welcome to the community.

Would you be able to provide a screenshot (by masking any sensitive information) of what you're seeing from the dropdown?

Regards,

Hi @Prady A

It is likely that you don't have permission to delete the repository.

You could try reaching out to the workspace admins and ask them if they could either provide you with admin access to delete the repository or delete the repository on your behalf.

Hi @Prady A welcome to Atlassian community.

Please be informed, the most common reason the Delete repository option is missing in Bitbucket (leaving only Move and Archive) is a permissions issue.

 

  • Please check your current permission level.
  • If your current role is Write or Read, you will not see the delete option. You must contact a higher-level administrator.

 

Assuming your permissions are confirmed as Admin, for the steps to find the option, check this documentation on-Delete a repository.
